Students are responsible for informing professors about the need for exam accommodations. We encourage students to speak听with their professors听within the first two weeks of the semester听(or as early as possible) so that they have adequate time to organize arrangements.听

If a professor cannot personally administer accommodations for an exam (such as extra time), the student must submit these needs to听arcaup.edu (the Academic Resource Center)听via the听听no later than two听(2) weeks before the exam date.

Arrangements for exams may differ for each class. Students are responsible for understanding the procedures within each class and communicating with the professor and ARC (if applicable) if they have questions or concerns.听

Audio Recording Lecture Policy

With the permission of the professor, students with approved accommodations may record the audio of class lectures. Such recordings are for their personal study only. For this reason, any portion of the recorded lecture may not be shared or published online. Recorded lectures must be erased at the end of each semester.

Computer for Notetaking Policy

Students with approved accommodations may use their personal computer for note-taking in class. Computers used for notetaking during class must be used for that purpose or for other classroom activities approved by the professor. If this accommodation is used in a way that violates classroom policies (other than 鈥渘o electronics/computers/etc.鈥� for which this accommodation serves as an exception) then the accommodation will be taken away and be exchanged with a different accommodation. In the case that a student has violated this policy, the professor and Director of Student Development will discuss if a violation has occurred and decide next-steps.
