Walden understands that there are times when students have temporary medical conditions that may impact their ability to meet academic deadlines.</p> </div> <div id="s-lg-content-68130155" class=" clearfix"> <h3>Leniency Request Policy</h3> <p>The <a href="https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/student-handbook/requesting-leniency">Leniency Request Policy</a> and process is available when a student experiences a temporary, unexpected medical condition (unrelated to an approved disability-related accommodation) that may result in temporary impairment and may require leniency for a limited amount of time to complete assignments. These conditions do not include routine health issues, which should be manageable without any leniency because of the built-in flexibility of Walden's online courses, or conditions that meet eligibility requirements for registration with the <a href="https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/disability-services">Office of Student Disability Services</a> (OSDS). <em>If you require accommodation, or if your leniency request is related to an approved accommodation, please contact OSDS via email at <a href="https://dvi.sharepoint.com/sites/waldenredflag/Shared%20Documents/MED%20DOCS/disability@mail.waldenu.edu">disability@mail.waldenu.edu</a>. If are accommodated with OSDS and you need to request additional or alternate accommodations, you must return to OSDS and ask for an adjustment to your accommodation.</em></p> <h3>Leniency Request Process</h3> <p>If a student feels that they have experienced a temporary impairment that has affected their ability to meet an assignment deadline or that has had major impact on their performance in a course, they may request that their instructor(s) consider offering them extra time. The instructor determines if any delay in submission is acceptable, whether or not explained by a medical issue. Each situation under this policy will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. </p> <p>Claims of medical issues impacting a student’s ability to meet deadlines may require documentation. Students should not send medical documentation directly to faculty. Faculty will not solicit medical documentation directly from students but will ask that such documents be submitted to the Medical Documentation Office for verification. In these cases, students should follow the instructions on the <a href="https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/ld.php?content_id=70379337">Leniency Request Form</a> to submit their medical documentation. The Medical Documentation Office will verify the medical documents and confirm receipt to faculty. Faculty make the final decision regarding the leniency request and communicate the outcome to the student.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div></div></div><div id="s-lg-col-3"
