Does SMCC provide testing or evaluations for the presence of a learning disability?
No. It is the student’s responsibility to provide documentation of disability to the institution. However, the institution may have information available regarding community resources that may be of assistance in obtaining documentation. Check with the disability services office at the institution you plan on attending for more information. Important Information about Student’s Right to Privacy and Confidentiality Disability related information and documentation is treated the same as medical information and handled under strict rules of confidentiality. Such information is shared only on a limited basis within the institutional community and then only when there is a compelling reason for the individual seeking the information to have knowledge of a specific aspect of this confidential information. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), also known as the Buckley Amendment, provides faculty with free access to educational information in institutional files regar
