Testing Accommodations
The College Board and ACT may provide testing accommodations to students who have a documented disability (Learning Disability, ADHD, or Health Impairment). The accommodations for students at Bloomingdale have generally been in the form of extended time, use of a computer for writing sections, and extra breaks.
To be eligible to receive accommodations on College Board exams, you must have a documented diagnosed disability and approval from the College Board Services for Students with Disabilities, and for ACT exams approval from the ACT Accommodation Center. The College Board and ACT each have separate application processes and specific guidelines and application deadlines in order to submit your request for accommodations. These specific guidelines for eligibility and application deadlines are available at the College Board and ACT websites.
If you feel you may qualify for testing accommodations or wish to discuss the procedure to document a disability, please contact Mrs. Mandy Raschke, School Counselor and SSD Coordinator.
