Preferred Documentation

You may speak with an Accessibility Coordinator at any time with questions about how to best locate the type of information we need to 评估 your eligibility and provide effective accommodations.

ADHD, Mental Health, Chronic Medical Conditions and/or Sensory related Disabilities

Since Accessibility Services is interested in how your condition may impact you, we have provided a form you may share with your medical professional in order to help document the information we need.

Disability Documentation Form

的 preferred method of documenting a 学习 disability is through a current, 全面的, adult-normed psycho-educational test battery with a statement of diagnosis, functional limitations resulting from the disability, and type of 学习 disability. If you received services in high school, this is often contained in the Multi-Factored Evaluation (MFE). IEP的, 第504条图则, or a Summary of Performance from your high school may or may not provide sufficient information. If your documentation does not meet the preferred standards, consider sending the documentation you have for review, along with documents that show the history of your accommodations.

Assistance 动物

To request an assistance animal as an accommodation, students should begin by registering with Accessibility Services through the process listed above.  In addition providing documentation of your disability and how it impacts you, you will also need to provide an Assistance Animal Recommendation Form, completed by your treating medical or 心理健康 provider.

Requests for assistance animals will be reviewed individually for eligibility by an Accessibility Coordinator, who will notify you by email of their eligibility determination and your next steps.

Please Note: After approval for an assistance animal as an accommodation, Accessibility Services will need to gather some additional information before the animal is approved to reside on campus.  It is not uncommon for this process to take 6-8 weeks from the initial request to final approval.
