Disability Resource Center¶
(Also covered on the Faculty Handbook's Disability Resource Center page.)
Accommodations for students with disabilities are handled by the Disability Resource Center (DRC). The instructions for the DRC's accommodations portal can be accessed on the DRC website below:

Extra Time on Quizzes¶
(Also covered on the Faculty Handbook's Providing Extra Time page.)
Some students may require extended time on quizzes and exams as part of their accommodations. The guide below explains the steps for modifying the time for an individual student on Canvas quizzes. If the extended time goes beyond the marked due date for the quiz, you will also need to modify the quiz due date.
To automatically extend time for a student across all quizzes, you can use the Quiz Extension tool.
Deadline Extensions¶
(Also covered on the Faculty Handbook's Deadline Extensions page.)
Canvas assignment due dates can be modified for an individual student, or for a specific course section. You may need to do this to accommodate for extended time on exams, or for students who need to make up an assignment. Follow the guide below, and select the student or section in the "Assign To" box.
