Accommodation Process
Undergraduate and graduate students with a documented disability can apply for accommodations. Documented disabilities may be psychological, neurological, medical, learning, hearing loss or Deaf, vision loss or Blind, or mobility issues. In order to request academic, housing, and/or dietary accommodations, students must submit an application which includes their student testimony. Students must also attach supportive documentation to the application or have their provider fax documentation to our office. Accessibility Services will then review your accommodation requests and respond with a decision.
STEP 1: Apply for Accommodations

STEP 2: Submit Supporting Documentation
Qualifying documentation includes verification of a student’s disability or diagnosis which can include a neuropsychological, psychoeducational, and/or psychological evaluation. If those do not apply, then documentation from a licensed practitioner which verifies and details the student's disability or diagnosis with the forms listed below.
