Disabilities commonly include hard of hearing, low vision, mobility impairments and learning disabilities, attention disorders and psychological disabilities.

How to Request Services

In order to request services, BMCC students with disabilities must submit disability documentation in a closed envelope to the Service Center, Morrow Hall, in care of Disability Services. The Disability Services Team will then contact the student and make an appointment to discuss eligible accommodations. See the Disability Documentation Requirements. Each request will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Students not at the Pendleton campus may fax this documentation to (541) 278-5871 or take the documentation to the nearest center to be forwarded.
