Returning Students

Welcome

If you already have approved accommodations through Accessibility Services, please use your Student Accommodate Portal for important announcements, to renew your academic accommodations for the semester or to request additional accommodations.

If you have never requested accommodations from Accessibility Services, please visit Request Accommodations for the First Time.


Renew Existing Academic Accommodations and Request Letter of Accommodation

In order for approved academic accommodations to be generated and sent to your faculty members for the current semester, the student needs to complete a Semester Request in Accommodate. It is the student’s responsibility to submit a Semester Request for each semester that academic accommodations are needed. Accommodations are not retroactive, so it is best to submit Semester Requests at the start of each semester.

How to Submit a Semester Request
Log into the Student Accommodate Portal and from the Home page follow directions under “Semester Requests.”

  • Once a semester request is submitted, a Letter of Accommodation will be sent to you and your faculty to review via Accommodate. An electronic signature of acknowledgement of receipt will be required by the student.
  • If you add a new class after submitting a semester request, you will need to submit a new semester request in order for accommodations to be sent to your faculty.
  • Meet with each faculty member to discuss the implementation of the accommodations as it relates to the class structure, requirements of the course and exams/quizzes.

Request Additional Accommodations

Students with approved accommodations can request additional accommodations through the Student Accommodate Portal.

How to Request Additional Accommodations
Log into the Student Accommodate Portal > Under the Accommodation tab, click Supplemental > click Add New. Complete form as prompted and click Submit. If you have new documentation, you can upload it prior to submission.

  • Accessibility Services will review the request and will reach out to request a Student Intake Meeting
  • Please note the review process typically requires 7 to 14 business days.
