Current Students
PMC academic accommodations and support services are tailored to the individualized disability-related needs of each student and based on documentation provided by a regulated health care practitioner. On this page, you will find information about individualized disability accommodations, services and resources available to you as a PMC student.
What we do at the PMC falls into three (3) core functions: skills building, integration and connection.
These core functions inform the ways that we…
- Provide individualized disability accommodations and support services while maintaining academic standards.
- Provide skills-building opportunities to foster independence and resilience in university and beyond.
- Foster integration and connection to the greater-Carleton community by working with campus partners to build capacity to support students with disabilities.
