Why would a sign language interpreter be needed for a written exam?

I manage a certification program and we have received an ADA request that a sign language interpreter be provided. We will provide the assistance as requested if the candidate provides the required documentation. But I wonder – why would someone need a sign language interpreter for a computer based multiple choice exam? They specifically requested it for the exam – not the check in time or other times when they will be interacting with the testing center staff.
