Residential students should contact Carissa Trotta at 919.416.2832 or Carissa.Trotta@ncssm.edu. Online students should contact Jessica Stroup at 828.347.9117 or jessica.stroup@ncssm.edu. Reasonable accommodations may be requested at any time during the academic year for all students; however, accommodations are not retroactive.
