'''Finding.''' The testing time accommodation changed from 200 percent to 250 percent with no formal update letter in the available evidence.

'''Evidence.''' Accommodation Plan emails (October 2025): 200 percent time on timed testing. Dr. Laban email (December 2025): "I'm working on your new testing link with the 250% time." ProctorU reminder (2026-04-28): "NSG521 RN Fundamentals NGN Final Exam 2026 Spring C Accommodations 250%."

'''Reported statement.'''
<blockquote>Additionally, I'm working on your new testing link with the 250% time. Can you please cancel your 12/8 exam at this time while I'm getting the other link set up?</blockquote>

'''Standards.''' 34 CFR §104.44; ADA regulatory requirements for accommodation documentation. All accommodation changes must be formally documented and communicated to the student and relevant instructors.

'''Impact.''' If the 200 percent accommodation was insufficient and required upgrade to 250 percent, that suggests the initial assessment may have been inadequate. The informal process of changing via a "link" rather than an updated plan may leave the change undocumented if disputed.

'''Notes.''' The transition from 200 percent to 250 percent in December 2025 apparently was driven by ongoing ProctorU disruption issues (sound machine blocking). It is possible that the upgrade was a workaround rather than a properly assessed accommodation.
