Mission of Disability Services:

Bossier Parish Community College ensures equal opportunity for all qualified students with disabilities. The goal of Disability Services is to provide the appropriate academic accommodations and modifications that will make the educational experience of disabled students as rewarding and successful as possible.

Categories Include:

  • Physical impairment
  • Sensory impairment (hearing or vision impaired)

  • Psychiatric/addictive disorders

To begin services, a registered BPCC student must not only provide the Disability Services with proper documentation, but must request assistance. In order to receive special accommodations for standardized tests (ACT), students must make the request at least two weeks in advance of the test date.
