COCC strives to make available to all students the opportunity for an excellent and
rewarding education. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and Section 504 of
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 provide federal guidelines which help the College ensure
equal access to all students.
- Students: Please contact us if you have any questions/concerns about how your accommodations transfer to the online environment or if you are facing new barriers. You are still responsible for submitting your accommodation requests to your instructors if you are wishing to request accommodations for your online course. You may experience that some of your accommodations are not needed, as the online environment may have reduced the barriers you once faced in the classroom.
