College Policies, Procedures, and Resources
ACCOMMODATION FOR RELIGIOUS POLICY
NWTC is committed to embracing the worth of every individual, creating a place for all people, and
promoting the respectful environment necessary for intellectual and personal discovery. Removing barriers
to serve a diverse population with a variety of religious beliefs and practices sustains this principle.
NWTC may provide a reasonable accommodation based on a person’s sincerely held religious belief. In
making this determination, NWTC reviews a variety of factors, including whether the accommodation
would create an undue hardship for the College. The accommodation request imposes responsibilities and
obligations on both the requesting individual and the College. For the complete policy, please click here.
