Application Checklist

• Students must submit a non-refundable $25.00 registration fee.

• You will be contacted by the Program Director to schedule an Orientation Session and a time to take the TABE (Tests of Adult Basic Education) if required for the training program. The TABE is used to insure students have the basic math and reading skills required to successfully complete their chosen training program. Remedial assistance may be available to improve math and reading skills.

• Requests for 504 Accommodations

Garrett College is committed to the success of its students and provides resources to support student learning, including accommodations.  There are significant differences in how students obtain accommodations in college as compared to high school. Academic accommodations are not automatic and students should be self-advocates when requesting services.   Students who wish to obtain accommodations for their classes must follow Disability Support Services (DSS) procedures:

1. Complete the Application for 504/ADA Accommodations.
   1. Provide details about the barriers you experience in an academic setting.
   2. Discuss accommodations that would be of benefit to you.
2. Schedule an intake appointment with the Office of Student Development.
3. Students will be required to provide current (within the past three years), written professional documentation in order to verify eligibility for special services. Such documentation can be in the form of medical reports or psychological evaluations, and must specify how learning is impacted including specific accommodations to assist in the learning process.

Please note, you are not considered fully registered with the office until you have been approved for accommodations.

Records provided are kept strictly confidential, and information provided is shared only with permission provided by the student.

Students seeking accommodation for a documented disability should contact Disability Support Services at 301-387-3749, e-mail ADA504@garrettcollege.edu.

Upon submission of this application, you will be contacted by a program staff member to collect the following:

1. $25.00 non-refundable registration fee (Cash, Check, or Credit Card Accepted)
2. Copy of Diploma, Transcript, or GED
3. Other Program Specific Documentation
