Additional facilities

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

At the start of their studies, students can indicate whether they have a functional limitation via Studielink and via the Study choice check. The student can then be referred to one of the deans or other support options from Fontys' Student Facilities Service.
Semester coaches can also remind students during their studies to apply for additional facilities through the dean or contact Student+.

There are several types of extra facilities that can be requested:

1. Use of quiet room/low stimulation room (not during assessing tests). The use of this room can be requested via Student+;
2. Extra individual tutoring by mentor up to a maximum of 7 hours per semester;
3. Extension of study duration in case of special personal circumstances;
4. Special circumstances that examination chamber should take into account when issuing the BNS.

The use of Kurzweil software is offered as standard.

• The request for the use of the quiet room/low stimulation room can be made to Student+;
• All other requests mentioned under the 'Possibilities' section are made on the Dean's advice. The student must make his/her own 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 examination committee tool;

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

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