Candidates with disabilities as prescribed by the ADA who require special accommodations should contact Brookdale's Testing Center at 732-224-2584 prior to taking the test.  You will be asked to submit documentation of your disability and your request for special accommodations.  We will then forward yor documentation along with your request for testing accommodations to Prometric for approval. 

Please submit your request as far in advance of your requested test date as possible so that we may have the opportunity to make the necessary accommodations.  Only test takers with document disabilitites are eligible for special accommodations.
