Accommodation Requests

Students with disabilities are required to meet the same academic standards as other students at the university. It is only through a student’s voluntary disclosure of disability and request for accommodation that the university can support disability needs.

 

Students with disabilities who wish to receive accommodations or services must officially register with the Executive Vice-President of Academic Affairs. To register, the student meets with the Executive Vice-President of Academic Affairs, submits the required disability documentation and formally requests services, including accommodations. A disclosure of disability or request for an accommodation made to a faculty or staff member, other than the staff of the Executive Vice-President of Academic Affairs, will not be treated as a request for an accommodation.

 

Requests for services or accommodation should be made as early as possible to allow time to review requests and documentation and make proper arrangements. Newly accepted students with needs for disability services should report information regarding that need directly to the Executive Vice-President of Academic Affairs. Accommodation arrangements may be compromised or denied if a request is not made in a timely manner. Requests for accommodation must be renewed each semester.
