If you experience difficulty with any component of an online course because of a disability, please refer to this statement in your College of Nursing syllabus and contact your instructor as soon as you become aware of the issue:
Students requesting accommodation for disability are responsible for notifying the course director by the end of the first week of the semester to discuss specific needs. Self-identification is the only way to assure that the instructor can make the appropriate accommodation. Students should provide a letter from the Office for Disability Services (098 Baker Hall, 113 W. 12th Ave; Office: (614) 292-3307; FAX: (614) 292-4190; VP: (614) 500-4445; email: ods@osu.edu) to verify the disability.
