American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) and its testing vendor make every effort to reasonably accommodate candidates with documented disabilities as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). If you have a disability as defined under the ADA, you must notify ANCC by submitting the following information with your application:

A report regarding your request from your physician or a qualified healthcare professional is required. The information must be on the physician’s or other qualified healthcare professional’s letterhead, typed, dated, and signed by the healthcare professional. The report must document the following information in order to be considered:

1. A specific diagnosis and date of your diagnosis
2. Specific and current findings that support your diagnosis (relevant medical history, tests administered, date of the most current evaluation, within the last 3 years)
3. A description of your substantial day-to-day functional limitations resulting from your stated disabilities
4. Specific recommendations for your testing accommodation(s) including a detailed explanation of why the accommodation is needed. If the accommodation includes extra time, please indicate the amount of time requested.

Important Note: Additional information may be requested after a review of your information.
