“I graduated in 2012 with an associate’s in business management and a certificate in small business development. I went on to open my own small business and have found great success in my career. I love what I do and I owe a lot of my success to the time I spent at EMCC!”
Accessibility Services
Eastern Maine Community College is dedicated to providing reasonable accommodations to students with disabilities in accordance with the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act and Amendments of 2009 (ADAA). Students requesting accommodations have the responsibility of registering with Accessibility Services in order to request accommodations. Reasonable accommodations are granted on an individual, case-by-case basis by the Director of Student Learning Support to students with documented disabilities. Questions about Accessibility Services can be directed to emccaccess@mainecc.edu

If you have questions about accommodations, academic policies, documentation, or anything else related to accessing your educational opportunities at EMCC, please ask! Accommodations are different in college than in high school. This webpage from the US Department of Education explains important differences in the Q&A section.
Guidelines for Documentation
Documentation can be sent to Accessibility Services via email at emccaccess@mainecc.edu or brought to the Student Success Center in Maine Hall. If you would like comprehensive guidelines for documentation, please email emccaccess@mainecc.edu
- Students with recent documentation from high school services can ask the school to provide a copy of the student’s full records with IEP/504, including supporting documentation and evaluations.
- Accommodations requests for service animals and emotional support animals require additional documentation. Please email emccaccess@mainecc.edu to get specific guidelines for service animal and ESA requests.
