Qualified individuals with a disability who need a reasonable accommodation should use Raphael’s School of Beauty Culture’s Request for Reasonable Accommodation Form to submit the request. The form must be submitted to the Disability Compliance Coordinator. Faculty or staff who become aware that a student is disabled and wants a reasonable accommodation must direct the student to speak with the Disability Compliance Coordinator.

Raphael’s School of Beauty Culture’s Disability Compliance Coordinator will be the single point of contact for students requesting reasonable accommodations. The Disability Compliance Coordinator is listed below with her contact information. This information may be updated via an addendum to this catalog or via campus-wide
communication.

When a student is referred to the Disability Compliance Coordinator, the Coordinator will schedule a time to speak with the student to explain this policy. If the student asks for a reasonable accommodation, he or she will be directed to complete the Request for Reasonable Accommodation Form. Once the Disability Compliance
Coordinator receives the completed form, it will be reviewed. The student may be required to provide additional information, including information from a licensed medical provider substantiating the disability and the requested accommodation. The Disability Compliance Coordinator will coordinate the interactive process with the student to determine what reasonable accommodation is necessary to allow the student to fully participate. If a student disagrees with or is not satisfied with the proposed reasonable accommodation, the student may appeal the decision using the School’s Student Grievance/Complaint Policy.
