800 21st Street, NW, Washington, DC 20052
Dr. Hosterman, the Director of Accommodations Review for the MCAT, will provide an overview of MCAT documentation requirements for accommodations, with a focus on those areas where students are chronically coming up short, resulting in requests being deemed “incomplete” or being denied. Suggestions will be offered to assist Disability Support staff and advisors on ways to help students present more complete applications for accommodations.

Location: The George Washington University, Marvin Center

With the recent implementation of the Post 9/11 GI Bill and the Yellow Ribbon Program, the number of student veterans is projected to increase on college campuses across the country in the short and long term. This day-long symposium hosted by the George Washington University aims to provide academic, student affairs, disability, and rehabilitation professionals with a framework for understanding current issues and effective practices in serving student veterans. The conference will focus on four themes: student veteran support and transition, creative solutions in systems and institutional change, mental health and disability services, and educating the campus community, to actively promote a culture of inclusion.
C-AHEAD members are invited to register at the GW professional rate.
