https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/state-partnerships/michigan?excmpid=MTG308-AL-1-mat
Tips: Start application process early One time unless needs change New medical or psychological testing not required just for
accommodations Most requests approved through online school verification process,
some will require additional documentation
Support and Accommodations – all programs
Primarily the same with some exceptions being worked on currently: Additional flexibility in Text to Speech Closed Captioning for listening items New possibilities being tested: Speech to text (M-STEP), closed
captioning, technology interface (JAWS, Zoom Text, Projection for use on Smartboard technology – with guidelines)
Possible pilot for refreshable Braille Multiple day testing pause rather than unlock
