ACCOMMODATIONS IN THE CLASSROOM AND ON EXAMS
 

Accommodations are provided for the purposes of "leveling the playing field" for students with disabilities. Post-secondary institutions are required by law to provide students with disabilities an equal opportunity to an education. Reasonable classroom accommodations provided on a case-by-case basis ensure that students with disabilities are judged on what they know and not on the impact of their disability. For more detailed information regarding how accommodation decisions are made at The University of Mississippi, please review the University's Policies and Procedures for Students with Disabilities.

PLEASE NOTE: The University is required by law to provide accommodations on a case-by-case and flexible basis depending on each student's individual circumstances. Because of this, we cannot possibly cover every potential accommodation scenario. We have included information about the most common accommodations and situations. If you find yourself dealing with an accommodation or a situation that we do not discuss here, please do not hesitate to contact us for further assistance and collaboration.

Review the following information carefully and completely. If you have questions about the information provided, if you believe that there is an essential subject that has not been discussed, or if something is unclear, please contact us.
