Sign Language Interpreters
College of the Mainland provides sign language interpreters for students who are deaf. Students must contact the coordinator of accessibility services prior to the beginning of the semester to request services and/or accommodations for their classes.
Prospective students needing an interpreter for a campus visit will need to contact the coordinator of accessibility services. Family members or close friends of the student will not be allowed to interpret for the student.
College of the Mainland’s “No Show Policy” has been implemented to better utilize the interpreting services. Students using sign language interpreters are required to report absences prior to the class meeting. If a student misses three classes without contacting the Accessibility Services office, interpreter services will be suspended. You are responsible for your attendance in class and will need to meet with the coordinator of Accessibility Services in order to have the services reinstated.
