In accordance with the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), examination administration modifications are available for candidates who qualify. Please go to the NCEES website to read complete information as to the application procedures for special accommodations. All requests and documentation must be submitted by the application deadline.
There are three ways to apply for special accommodations. The
NCEES website has complete details about these procedures. The forms may be downloaded from the
NCEES website. If you do not have Internet access or access to a printer, please call PCS to request copies of the appropriate forms.
- Candidates who have received special accommodations (either ADA or Sabbath) within the past three years need to complete the Form for Requesting Subsequent Test Accommodations and, if necessary, supply any supporting documentation.
- Candidates who are applying for special accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act for the first time will complete the Questionnaire for Candidates Requesting Test Accommodations, a personal statement, and if appropriate, a Certification of Prior Test Accommodations Form. There is very detailed information about the medical or psychological documentation requirements on the NCEES website. Depending upon your disability, you may be required to submit college transcripts.
- Candidates who are members of religious faiths that cannot take the examination on the designated date are permitted to take the examination on an alternate assigned date. Sabbath candidates are required to submit a Religious Accommodations Request Form, as well as official documentation from their cleric stating why the candidate is unable to take the examination on the scheduled date.
Please note that the mailing addresses for the requests vary by the type request you are making. The correct mailing address is on each specific report.
