K – 12
Students seeking accommodations at Fairmont State University sometimes previously
received accommodations in their K-12 education through an Individualized Education
Plan (IEP) or 504 plan. These plans are supported by their respective educational
laws, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Subpart D. They can include services and modifications,
in addition to accommodations, and are typically created to ensure successful graduation.
While these documents can offer some historical disability and accommodation information,
the listed accommodations will not automatically apply at Fairmont State University
or another higher education setting.
