Academic Accommodations

How to Get Started 

  1. If you have not yet registered in My Accessibility Portal (MAP), begin by submitting an Online Student Application.
  2. You will be asked to submit documentation of your disability or disabilities.
  3. Schedule a welcome meeting with an Accessibility Resources staff member.
  4. The staff member will help you set up your classes in MAP.

The My Accessibility Portal for entering students to request academic accommodations opens mid-June. We are happy to have a conversation about our services, or answer any questions prior.
