Disability Eligibility

Eligibility Statement: Any student who has a disability which substantially limits one or more major life activities, e.g., walking, speaking, seeing, hearing, learning, etc., is eligible to receive accommodations through the Community College’s Disability Services program.

In order to receive accommodations, the student must provide documentation of his or her disability, which includes a diagnosis and a description of functional limitations (of the major life activity). To review specific disabilities information, check out our definitions. Mohave Community College does not provide personal assistants, eyeglasses, or hearing aids.
