====== Additional facilities ======

>**Summary**
>//The procedure for applying for and granting an additional facility is described here.//

===== Introduction =====

At the start of their studies, students can indicate whether they have a functional limitation via [[https://connect.fontys.nl/diensten/SV/Paginas/Studiekeuzecheck_new.aspx|Studielink]] and via the [[https://connect.fontys.nl/diensten/SV/Paginas/Studiekeuzecheck.aspx|Study choice check]]. The student can then be referred to one of the deans or other support options from Fontys' [[https://connect.fontys.nl/diensten/SV| Student Facilities Service]].\\
[[..:beleid:rolbeschrijving_semestercoach|Semester coaches]] can also remind students during their studies to apply for additional facilities through the dean or contact [[..:beleid:Studentplus|Student+]].

===== Possibilities =====

There are several types of extra facilities that can be requested:
  - Use of quiet room/low stimulation room (not during assessing tests). The use of this room can be requested via [[..:beleid:Studentplus|Student+]];
  - Extra individual tutoring by mentor up to a maximum of 7 hours per semester;
  - Extension of study duration in case of special personal circumstances;
  - Special circumstances that examination chamber should take into account when issuing the [[..:beleid:bindend_negatief_studieadvies|BNS]].

The use of [[https://connect.fontys.nl/diensten/IT/Kurzweil|Kurzweil software]] is offered as standard. 

===== Applications =====

  * The request for the use of the quiet room/low stimulation room can be made to [[..:beleid:Studentplus|Student+]]; 
  * All other requests mentioned under the 'Possibilities' section are made on the Dean's advice. The student must make his/her own [[https://connect.fontys.nl/diensten/SV/Paginas/iStudent.aspx|appointment with the dean]] for this;
  * After the meeting with the student, the dean draws up a recommendation, which the student should send along with his application via the [[https://examboard.fhict.nl/|examination committee tool]]; 

===== Granting =====
The examination board will consider the request. If granted, the student will receive a confirmation e-mail. 

===== Processing =====
The Official secretary registers the facilities granted in the Student Tracking System (SVS) and informs those involved.
