Federal eligibility categories of deafness or hearing impairment. Auditorily impaired means an
inability to hear within normal limits due to physical impairment or dysfunction of auditory
mechanisms characterized by (c) i or ii below. An audiological evaluation by a specialist qualified
in the field of audiology, and a speech and language evaluation by a certified speech-language
specialist are required.
i. Deafness (DB) - The auditory impairment is so severe that the student is impaired in

educational performance is adversely affected.
ii. Hearing impairment - An impairment in hearing whether permanent or fluctuating which
adversely affects the student’s educational performance.
2. Autistic (AU) - means a pervasive developmental disability, which significantly impacts verbal
and nonverbal communication, and social interaction that adversely affects a student’s educational
performance. Onset is generally evident before age three. Other characteristics often associated
with autism are engagement in repetitive activities and stereotyped movements, resistance to
environmental change or change in daily routine, unusual responses to sensory experience and lack
of responsiveness to others. The term does not apply if the student’s adverse educational
performance is due to emotional disturbance as defined in (c) 5 below. A child who manifests the
characteristics of autism after age three may be classified as autistic if the criteria in this paragraph
are met. An assessment by a certified speech-language specialist and an assessment by a physician
trained in neuro developmental assessment are required.
3. Cognitively Impaired (MR) - corresponds to “mentally retarded” and means a disability that is
