Information for Incoming Students

Disability & Accessibility Resources (DAR) works with students who have medical, mental health, or other disability conditions and who are seeking accommodations for academics, housing, or PE. We look forward to working with you!

Important Dates

Incoming students may access 腦瞳憫's accommodation applications once they have set up their 腦瞳憫 computer account and have a 腦瞳憫 email address. Students are encouraged to keep these deadlines in mind:

  • April 15 - June 1: Housing Accommodation Request Forms due
    Deadline to register with DAR for students seeking disability housing accommodations
  • May 1 - July 1: Academic and PE Accommodation Request Forms due
    Recommended deadline to register with DAR for students seeking academic or PE accommodations for the fall semester
  • May 1 - August 1: Academic accommodation intake meetings: Recommended timeframe for students to meet with DAR for their academic intake meetings

How do I request accommodations at 腦瞳憫?

Our Student Accommodation Process page has all the information you'll need to get started!

A couple things to note:

  • You will need 腦瞳憫 log-in credentials (username and password) to access our accommodation application center. Typically, a 腦瞳憫 computer account will be created for you after you have paid your 腦瞳憫 enrollment deposit.
  • Please do NOT send your disability documentation to our office unless you have already filled out an accommodation application. 

Do I need to schedule an appointment with a DAR staff member?

For housing accommodations, you do not need to proactively schedule a meeting. Once you fill out your housing accommodation request form, we will email you if a meeting is needed. 

For academic or PE accommodation requests, you will need to attend an intake meeting with DAR staff before you can begin using your accommodations. We recommend  to take place between May 1 and August 1.

What if I missed the deadline?

The short answer is, we encourage you to start the accommodation process anyway! The longer answer is...

Housing accommodations: If the deadline for housing accommodations has passed, please submit your accommodation request form disability documentation to us as soon as possible. We will review your request and consider what options may still be available, within the remaining housing vacancies at that time. Housing accommodations are particularly time-sensitive, as housing inventory becomes limited once Residence Life issues room assignments to incoming students.

Academic accommodations: For academic or PE accommodations, students may submit their accommodation request form at any time of year, though we recommend doing so by July 15th for students who would like to have their accommodations in place by the start of the fall semester. 

I have other questions. How do I get in touch?

Email is a great way to reach us! We're also available to meet via Zoom or in person, by only during the summer months. 

What about mental health care, tutoring, or other resources?

In addition to disability accommodations, 腦瞳憫 offers a wide range of supportive resources for all students. Visit Academic Support to learn about workshops, academic coaching, and peer tutoring.

The Health and Counseling Center can provide information about medical and mental health care at 腦瞳憫, medication management, referrals to off-campus providers, and 腦瞳憫 health insurance coverage.
