Policies & Procedures

Policy: 8603

Rowan College of South Jersey recognizes the importance of the physical and mental health and well-being of its students, and therefore, has developed this policy to ensure students are supported and eligible to receive temporary accommodations after a serious temporary medical condition or injury. In some cases, the duration of a serious temporary medical condition or injury may necessitate an incomplete, drop, or a withdrawal. All situations will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

The College will be guided by the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (“ADAAA”) in providing accommodations for students who suffer serious temporary medical conditions or injuries that substantially limit major life activities.

The President will have administrative procedures adopted to implement this policy to include

eligibility requirements and appropriate temporary accommodations and services.
