Denver College of Nursing is an Equal Opportunity Educational institution and does not discriminate in the recruitment and admission of students with respect to race, color, creed, sex, age, handicap, disability, national origin, or any other legally protected characteristics. Applicants, prospective, or current students with disabilities who require academic adjustments and/or auxiliary aids in connection with the admissions process, the admissions test, and/or their program of study, should contact the Director of Academic Support. The Director of Academic Support and the Campus President, in accordance with the Applicants and Students with Disabilities Policy, will work with the applicant and/or prospective student to collect the required documentation and request forms and identify reasonable accommodations and necessary to enable them to fully participate in the admissions and educational processes. Questions about this process may be directed to the Vice President of Academic Affairs at Education Affiliates, Inc. at vpaa@edaff.com.
Note: Accommodations approved by a previous program do not automatically transfer.
Once the request form and all documentation are complete, the Campus President, or their designee, will provide the student with written notification of the accommodation determinations. If approved, the student’s faculty will also receive a notification letter. This will normally be done within two (2) weeks after receiving all completed documentation but may take longer if circumstances require. Approved accommodations are not retroactive for any previously taken quizzes, tests, or assignments.
If a student wishes to file a complaint regarding any disability discrimination, the student should notify the Vice President of Academic Affairs at Education Affiliates, Inc. via email at vpaa@edaff.com. A student is not required to make an informal resolution attempt. A hearing will be scheduled within five business days of the notification. However, at the discretion of the Institution, the complaint process may be delayed or extended for good cause. Good cause includes, but is not limited to, the unavailability of witnesses or the need for language assistance. At the hearing, the student has the right to present additional relevant evidence and bring witnesses, if desired, to support their position.
If the College determines that discrimination based on disability may have occurred, Institution will take steps proactively designed to promptly and effectively end the discrimination, prevent its recurrence, address its effects, and provide supportive measures.
