Arranging Services and Accommodations
If you qualify for Star, there are a few things that you are required to do to arrange services.
- Contact Star at Joliet Junior College and apply for services
- Provide documentation of your disability.
- Request accommodations as soon as possible - preferably at least six (6) weeks before the first day of classes.
- Specialized accommodations such as taped textbooks, large print textbooks or a sign language interpreter must be requested in advance to allow Star a reasonable time period to arrange services. (NOTE: Sometimes advanced notice of more than 6 to 8 weeks is necessary in order to provide some accommodations!)
- You must notify Star if you no longer wish to utilize a particular accommodation.
