HTCC and PSI comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and strive to ensure that no individual with a disability, defined by the ADA as a person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment, is deprived of the opportunity to take the examination solely by reason of that disability. HTCC will provide reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities.
If you require special accommodations in order to sit for the examination, you should contact the HTCC administrative office. You and your qualified health care provider will need to complete a form to document the disability and the need for accommodation. You must provide medical documentation of the disability that is less than five years old. This means that you must have a current evaluation from the appropriate provider. HTCC must receive this documentation no later than March 15th for the spring examination and September 15th for the fall examination.
You must submit two forms with your application:
Request for Accommodations - Candidate Form and the Request for Accommodations - Provider Form.
These forms require you to provide the:
- Diagnosis and nature of the disability,
- Name of tests used to evaluate the condition and a summary of the positive findings that support the diagnosis of the disability
- Length of the condition
- Date you were last seen by a qualified health care provider
- What accommodation is suggested
The forms should be sent to the HTCC administrative office. Each request will be evaluated individually. Once the special accommodation has been approved, you must click here to schedule your examination through the PSI website. There is no additional charge for special accommodations.
Please note: wheelchair access is available at all established Assessment Centers. Candidates must advise PSI at the time of scheduling that wheelchair access is necessary.
Please contact the HTCC office if you have any questions regarding special accommodations. HTCC wants to be sure that that candidates have the accommodations they need.
