Disability Accommodations
Hawaii Institute of Hair Design is committed to equal educational opportunities for qualified students with disabilities in compliance with Section 504 of the Federal Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. Reasonable accommodations can be made for students with disabilities. Requests for accommodations need appropriate advance notice by the student to avoid a delay in services. Accommodations commonly made are allocating time with the teachers for extra help understanding the theory and homework assignments, unlimited retesting, guidance and assistance when performing practical services in the classroom and practical clinic, daily attendance schedule variations throughout the upper levels to give students the opportunity to make up any missed time and complete all tests required for graduation, and a Leave of Absence allowed for treatment of a serious medical condition. Student situations vary widely and that the way for us to serve our students best is to treat each student with confidentiality and each situation on a case by case basis. Please discuss approved accommodation with faculty after receiving approval from the Office Administrator or Registrar.
