How do students receive an accommodation in college?
NCCC is committed to the full participation of all students in its programs. Students with disabilities who feel they may require specific accommodations are encouraged to contact the Learning Disabilities Specialist, Daneen Huddart at 860.738.6318. Unlike high school, students must self-advocate and produce documentation for consideration of an accommodation.
My student has questions about their bill, who do they contact?
Be sure to contact the Cashier’s Office. Only the student can discuss billing with the cashier. Be sure to get acquainted with the college’s Refund Policy. A FERPA Release must be on file in the Cashier’s Office before any information can be release! A payment plan can be made online only. A student can make a payment:
By mail, Cashier’s Office, Northwestern Connecticut Community College, 4 Park Place, Winsted, CT 06098
Online, Login into your student account and pay with a credit card at myCommNet.
By phone, Call the Cashier’s Office at 860.738.6415
What if my loved one has an extenuating circumstance and missed class for a period of time?
There are times that a student gets sick or other extenuating circumstances that causes them to miss several classes. If that happens, we recommend the following:
Have the student contact the professor to see if the work can be made up and can complete the class this term.
If it is not possible to complete the class this term, have the student check with the professor if they qualify for an incomplete. If an incomplete is not feasible, have the student contact the Dean of Academic & Student Affairs via their college email to set up an appointment about a possible course waiver.
