- If scores from the selection process for both tests are below the guidelines, the applicant will be declined admission to the program.

The Act requires careful consideration of all applicants with a disability seeking education and placement.

Students are strongly encouraged to meet the Program Coordinator to discuss program accommodation requirements before applying.
The program requires testing before an admission decision is made. Students may contact their Program Coordinator well in advance before the assessment date to ensure arrangements are made for test accommodations.
Students with a documented disability, such as a learning disability, medical or mental health condition, physical, visual, hearing, or mobility impairment, may qualify for test accommodations.
