The academic requirements and procedures for students with disabilities are the same as for all other applicants. Students with disabilities who are considering applying to NYIT are invited to call the Office of Disability Services to discuss your individual concerns and needs.

NYIT does not offer students with disabilities the following:

• Diagnostic evaluation for disabilities
• Special classes
• A reduced standard for academic performance
• Exemption to graduation requirements
• Credit for effort in place of demonstrated competence in the content

Accommodations for Placement Exams

Students whose disabilities require accommodations for placement exams must complete a Request for Accommodations Form and an intake interview with the Office of Disability Services prior to the placement exams. Appropriate accommodations will be worked out on a case-by-case basis and will not necessarily incorporate all requested changes.
