Students With Disabilities
Lindsey Wilson College accepts students with learning
disabilities and provides reasonable accommodation that will
facilitate success. Depending on the nature of the disability, some
students may need to take a lighter course load and may need more
than four years to graduate. Students needing accommodation should
apply as early as possible, usually before May 15. Immediately
after acceptance, students need to identify and document the nature
of their disabilities. It is the responsibility of the student to
provide the Disabilities Officer at Lindsey with appropriate
materials documenting the learning disability, usually a recent
high school Individualized Education Program (IEP) and results from
testing conducted by a psychologist, psychiatrist, or a qualified,
licensed person. The College does not provide assessment services
for students who may be learning disabled. Although Lindsey Wilson
provides limited personal counseling for all students, the College
does not have structured programs available for students with
emotional or behavioral disabilities. For more information, contact
the Disabilities Officer at (270) 384-7479.
