Interpreting Services
All students requesting accommodations are required to follow the steps outlined by the college if seeking services. Please refer to the "Requesting Services" page for specific details and next steps to request accommodations.
Note: Documentation is reviewed in the order received, therefore, all requests for accommodations should be made at least 30 days in advance of the need. We cannot guarantee coverage in the case of a last minute, short notice request.
Students who are requesting an interpreter for an appointment or event must complete an Interpreter Request Form, or email the following information to the Disability Services office (ssdinterpreting@monroecc.edu). All requests should be placed with as much advanced notice as possible, as all requests are subject to availability. To allow for adequate planning, the request form must be thoroughly completed with the following information:
