Accommodations for Students with Disabilities
Revised March 2005
Pacific Oaks is committed to providing program accessibility to all students. Students seeking accommodations for documented physical and/or academic challenges must identify themselves to the Director of CARE prior to the beginning of classes. Last minute requests may not be accommodated due to insufficient time to make appropriate arrangements.
Note: Students who do not require accommodations do not need to make their disabilities known.

Accommodation Request Procedures Students at all Pacific Oaks sites who are requesting disability accommodations must complete an accommodation request form and submit current documentation of their disability (no older than three years) to the Director of CARE located on the Eureka Pasadena Campus. (Note: Pacific Oaks does not provide diagnostic services.) Upon receipt of the required materials, the Director of the Care Office will contact the student initiating the request.
The accommodation request and documentation will be reviewed by the Director of CARE and a determination made as to the nature and extent of accommodations that will be provided. The student will be notified in writing of the accommodations and the next step for obtaining those accommodations.
Students granted accommodations are responsible for contacting the Director of CARE no later than the second (2nd) week of each semester to discuss their accommodation needs.
Specific accommodations will be arranged as follows:
Pasadena campus: Accommodations will be coordinated directly with the Director of the Care Office.
Non-Pasadena sites: Accommodations will be coordinated by the designated disability coordinator at each site in consultation with the Director of the Care Office.
As appropriate and with the permission of the student, individual faculty will be informed of the need for accommodations to be made and the nature of the accommodation. Information about the nature of the student's disability will not be released by the Care Office or the disability coordinators at the individual sites.
Any questions regarding accommodations or the process for receiving assistance should be directed to the Director of CARE at (626) 397-1338.
