Documentation Criteria and Forms
Students requesting an accommodation(s) based upon disability must complete the Accommodation Request and Documentation form (link below).
Students are strongly encouraged to use the electronic form as it is secure for the sharing of medical information. If for any reason a student or provider cannot use the electronic form, a downloadable PDF version of the same form is available below.
Accomodation Form - Downloadable PDF
Accommodation requests for Housing, Parking and Dining must be submitted each year for which they are requested. Accommodations for Housing, Parking and Dining are reviewed annually and are dependent upon request for and approval of accommodations each year.
Accommodation requests for Academics/classes do not have to be resubmitted each year. However, should the student’s disability or medical condition change, or should the student and medical provider recommend review of approved accommodations, the Accommodation Request and Documentation Form does need to be resubmitted to detail the change.
