1. Get in touch with the disabilities office soon before starting class.
2. Get note taker requests lined up, so all the professor/instructors have the letter to announce in class the first day. Request your notes IMMEDIATELY or ASAP after the class.
3. Also, sit close.
4. After you have registered, contact each professor/instructor individually via e-mail, introducing yourself to them; they will be happy that you did.
5. Stay on schedule in all your readings and assignments for every class. Don't turn in any work late unless it is approved (some profs will not accept late work).
6. Take notes yourself in addition to note taker and ask your own questions.
7. Finally, request your exams be taken in a quiet area , not in the classroom with your classmates.
8. DO NOT WEAR A HAT, AS ON EXAM DAY, YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO TURN IT AROUND SO THE BILL IS AT THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD (PREVENTS CHEATING).
9. If you are having problems in a particular class, e-mail the professor as primary, and the disabilties office gets the cc, not the other way around.
10. After you have received a note taker in each class, go over and introduce yourself to him/her. The disabilities office will make sure that they are taking good notes and there are no "doodles" that some do on the side of their note books. If you can't read their handwriting, say so.
