Alternative Text
Alternative text is required course materials, textbooks, electronic documents, exams, and other print materials students need converted into accessible formats. Accessible formats include PDF, RTF (Rich text format), and DOC (document). Large print and Braille resources are also available for students with this accommodation.
Converting textbooks into electronic format (eText) takes up to four weeks for SAS to produce. Students and instructors can minimize delays by requesting necessary course materials as early as possible.
