Students with Disabilities (SSD)
Students must be registered with SSD to receive accommodation services. If you are a student with a documented disability that requires an accommodation contact the Coordinator of Services for Students with Disabilities in the SSD Office by calling 315-866-0300 x8331 or by email at SSD@herkimer.edu. The sooner you take this step, the better.
If you have already registered with SSD and have reviewed your semester accommodation plan with the Coordinator of Services for Students with Disabilities, it is important to next meet one-on-one with the instructor for each class in which you’ve requested an accommodation. You’ll want to be prepared to discuss your strengths and preferred learning style. Remember, getting to know your instructors is an important key to success!
Placement Testing (including test prep)
The ASC is responsible for testing all new, incoming freshman as they begin their HCCC academic career.
