The Office of Student Disability Services is required to offer accommodations to students based on their disability. View the full list of accommodations. Most reasonable accommodations will need to be requested by the student each semester. Requests can be made through an interactive process between the student and an SDS staff member.

The Office of Student Disability Services also has Enhanced Services, called Project Pass, which students can choose to participate. By signing up for Project Pass (enhanced services), students are required to use all the services. Learn more about Project Pass.

Guidelines for Disability Documentation for Academic/Testing Accommodations

The documentation on file must:

1. Be typed and printed on official letterhead and be signed by an evaluator qualified to make the diagnosis (include information about license or certification and area of specialization).

2. Clearly state the diagnosis or DSM-V diagnosis of the disability or disabilities.

3. Provide a description of the functional limitations resulting from the disabilities as related to an academic setting.

4. Be current (within five years for LD, ADHD, and/or ASD; psychiatric disorders within 1 year).

5. Provide a list of all test instruments (reliable, valid, and standardized for use with an adult population) used in the evaluation report and relevant subtest scores used to document the stated disability.

6. Include complete educational, developmental, and medical history relevant to the disability for which accommodations are being requested.

7. Describe the specific accommodation(s) requested and adequately support each requested accommodation.

Documentation can be emailed to the office (msu.studentdisabilities@murraystate.edu), faxed to 270-809-4339, or delivered in person to 423 Wells Hall.

Testing accommodations for students

The SDS Office provides a quiet, distraction-reduced testing environment. Testing in our office also allows students to have extended time for exams. The following are guidelines to help everyone understand their part in the SDS Office testing procedure.

Scheduled exams are to be taken in our office at the same time as the class exam, unless there is a conflict with the student's schedule. When a schedule conflict occurs, an arrangement will be worked out between the student and the professor in advance. If an alternate testing time is necessary this information will be posted on the accommodation form that will be shared with the student and their professor.  The professor may discuss this with the SDS Office if they prefer a specific time.

The Responsibilities of the Students

• It is the responsibility of the student to request their testing accommodations with the SDS Office each semester/term that they intend to use their accommodations.

• After a student submits their , our Testing Center staff will prepare the student鈥檚 accommodation form(s). Please follow instructions to access your letter.
• Your professors will be notified via email of your approved testing accommodations. 

• The student is required to schedule their exams with the SDS Office at least three business days prior to having a test/exam/quiz.

The Responsibilities of the SDS Office

Once a test has been scheduled by the student, the SDS Testing Center Supervisor will email the professor to request that a copy of the exam be made available to our office.

• Exams can be delivered:
• • By the Professor
  • Emailed to msu.accesstesting@murraystate.edu
  • Faxed to the office at 270.809.4339
  • Picked up by a representative from the SDS Office
• The exam is sealed and locked in a filing cabinet until the time of the test.
• We do not copy any exams without the instructor's permission.
• The SDS Office will return the exam to the professor as soon as possible.
• Some students need a reader (or scribe) during their exam. All readers (and scribes) are full-time staff members or graduate students. Undergraduate student workers DO NOT read (or scribe) exams to our students, nor do they work in the SDS Testing Center.
• If more than one student is taking the same exam, those students will not be allowed to sit near each other.

The Responsibilities of the Professor

• If you give pop quizzes, please notify us so we can make some type of arrangements.

• We assume that all tests are closed book, closed note exams. If you allow open book, open note exams, please let us know.

Final Exams

Finals week is an extremely busy time for our office. We try to schedule these exams at least a week in advance to make sure everything runs smoothly during that hectic time. We appreciate your patience, cooperation and assistance during this time.

The SDS Office Policy on Cheating

We have a zero tolerance policy on cheating. If we suspect a student of cheating, we will collect all notes and testing materials and return everything and return to the professor for the appropriate action.
