Disability Accommodation Services

Bard College Berlin is committed to providing an equitable and inclusive learning environment. In support of this mission, the College provides services and reasonable accommodations to self-identified students who present the appropriate documentation. 

How to Register a Disability

To avail of such services and accommodations, students are asked to complete the disability registration form and submit it along with the accompanying documentation. Students wishing to provide information in advance or discuss the disability registration process should email [email protected]. Following submission of the disability registration form and the required attestation, the student has the opportunity to have a counseling session with the Accommodation Services Coordinator at Bard College Berlin for a better understanding of needed accommodations. 

Provided the relevant documentation supports it, the accommodation approval letter will be sent to the student via email or post upon request. For better documentation and transparency the college registrar will be informed and in the case of academic accommodations, the relevant members of the committee. In the case of residential accommodations, the relevant members of Student Life will be notified.

After acquiring an accommodation approval the students are required to attend to their responsibilities as follows:

Student Responsibilities

  • Attend
    Attend the first day of classes and review the syllabus for each course to be aware of course requirements related to class participation. Regardless of disability or accommodations, all students are held to the same evaluation standards and responsible for meeting the essential learning objectives of the course, as specified in the course syllabus.
  • Notify
    Notify your instructors of your accommodations, and as relevant, your eligibility for Class Participation Accommodations at the beginning of the semester, or as soon as eligible for accommodations. Timely notice of accommodations is critical as accommodations are in most cases not retroactive.
  • Follow Up
    Follow up with each relevant instructor to discuss how this accommodation applies to their course. It is important to explore the boundaries of reasonableness for this accommodation in light of specific course learning objectives, as accommodations may not fundamentally alter any essential elements of a course.
  • Contact
    Contact your Disability Accommodation Coordinator at [email protected] if you have questions or concerns at any point during the process.
