Implementing Your Accommodations
Implementing Your Accommodation(s) is a Two-Step Process:
- Send Letters
- Meet with each faculty member
It is the responsibility of the student to set up a time to discuss with their instructors how the accommodations will be implemented.
- It is essential that you meet to discuss the logistics early enough to ensure the accommodations can be implemented. We recommend talking with your professor at least 7 days prior to an exam; otherwise, it may be too little time to put things in place. The same is true for other accommodation needs such as accessible texts or sign language interpreters. Reasonable notice is necessary to ensure provision of accommodations.
- The deadline to request accommodations, complete the intake, or provide documentation to SAS to receive accommodations the same semester you are requesting, is two (2) weeks before finals week. The process of identifying and determining accommodations is an ongoing conversation. Students should provide additional documentation and/or talk with SAS as concerns and needs arise, or as the condition of the disability changes.
However, there are no retroactive accommodations.
