accommodations for testing - miah - 06-09-2018

Can anyone tell me if they know anything first hand about how students would go about getting testing accommodations for the tests through these alternative testing options? (extended time, etc) TIA!

Edit: Sorry missed the first hand request, but the links may still be helpful.

... Searching accommodation and some of the providers found their policy pages:

CLEP: https://www.collegeboard.org/students-with-disabilities/accommodations-other-exams

DSST: https://getcollegecredit.com/assets/pdf/Test_Taker_Bulletin_V.2.pdf

Straighterline: https://www.straighterline.com/student-handbook/accessibility/

Nothing came up for Study.com.

Ok, ty! I will check them out. I just didn't know if anyone had tried requesting them before and if it was easy or if it was more like requesting accommodations for say the PSATs. TY!
