All students who are approved for exam accommodations by the Law School should request exam accommodations by completing an Accommodation Request form no later than 60 days prior to each exam period to allow adequate time for scheduling the logistics involved with these requests. Forms received after this date will not be considered unless extenuating circumstance have interfered with one's ability to meet this deadline. In this case, students must contact the Disability Compliance Officer to discuss their situation and request for services. Applications are available in the Dean of Students Office and on line at http://www.law.suffolk.edu/offices/deanofstu/disability/forms.cfm.
All students who have met with the Disability Compliance Officer and have been approved for accommodations based on a permanent or temporary disability will receive an official letter from the Dean of Students Office outlining their approved exam and/or classroom accommodations. Students are encouraged to keep these letters for their records should they submit an application for exam accommodations for the bar exam.
All law school examinations are scheduled through the Registrar's Office. For more information about examination procedures, please consult the Registrar's website. Before the final exam period, students will receive a written notification from the Registrar's office to their mailing address to confirm the exam accommodations, times, locations, and instructions for each scheduled examination. Under no circumstances should students discuss exam accommodations with their faculty members. All questions and concerns should be directed to the Dean of Students Office. Maintaining the integrity of the anonymous grading system is a student responsibility and a critical component to the student code of conduct.
