Request Accommodations

Accommodations may include a laptop for notes, laboratory assistance, course materials in alternative formats, a reduced course load, and/or extended time on assignments for academic accomodations and other accommodations used when regarding housing and food restrictions or concerns.

At the beginning of every semester all students with academic accommodations will need to request their approved accommodations by submitting a Class Accessibility Letter (CAL) request. Following the student's request for academic accommodations, a Class Accessibility Letter will be sent via email to student.

Note: The student will deliver the Class Accessibility Letter to instructors and make plans with them to ensure appropriate access to accommodations.
