The Disability Resource Center encourages individuals who request accommodations to register with our office and submit required diagnostic information well in advance of the semester for which you will be requesting accommodations. Barring unforeseen circumstances, the Disability Resource Center will review your request for accommodations within two weeks of receipt of all required documentation. Sending your accommodations request in early should facilitate your planning and preparation.

Laredo Community College is committed to removing barriers that prohibit students with disabilities from achieving their educational goals. The Disability Resource Center exists to ensure that all students with disabilities can freely and actively participate in all facets of college life. We provide and coordinate supportive services and programs to maximize a student's educational potential and to develop their independence to the fullest potential.

To ensure that students with disabilities have equal access to an education and to college life, the Disability Resource Center provides reasonable accommodations and supportive services which are flexible and have the goal of equal opportunity in mind. The Disability Resource Center creates opportunities and promotes the same educational experiences, services, and enrichment to persons with disabilities that are offered to non-disabled persons.
