Once accommodations have been approved, it is the student’s responsibility to submit an Accommodation Request each semester in order for their Letter of Accommodation to be issued. This process is completed online through the 发条系统. It is important that Accommodation Requests be submitted in a timely manner since accommodations do not apply retroactively. If our office does not receive a Semester Request from the student, the Letter of Accommodation will not be issued to faculty, and accommodations will not be in effect. The steps to submit a Semester Request each semester are as follows:
点击“请求住宿”并选择“住宿”选项卡。
确保在页面顶部列出正确的学期。 You will see a list of your classes. 点击“申请”，选择你想申请住宿的课程。
You may customize which accommodations you want to request for each class, or you can "select all" to choose all accommodations.
Once the Semester Request is received and processed by a counselor, the Letter of Accommodation (LOA) will be sent via email to the student, appropriate instructors, and any other relevant staff for the classes designated in the Semester Request. A copy of the letter will also be available in the student portal in Clockwork.
Once the Letter of Accommodation has been issued to faculty, students will need to meet with each instructor to discuss the details of the accommodations and determine how each accommodation will/can work in the course. In some circumstances, requested accommodations may not be reasonable in specific courses. If this arises, 可访问性 Services (AS) will engage with faculty and determine what is reasonable. In cases where, based on the nature of the course and the essential elements, a requested accommodation is not reasonable, AS may explore alternatives with the student if an access barrier is still present.
找到最适合你的住宿和支持并不总是那么容易。 If you are still struggling with your classes, facing additional challenges, or if something changes with your disability, please contact your accessibility counselor. Depending on your situation and accommodation requests, your counselor will let you know if additional documentation is needed.
If an accommodation request is not approved, and you disagree with the decision, you have the right to seek a review and reconsideration through the 可访问性服务 Grievance Process pursuant to 弗吉尼亚大学政策152残疾人士住宿, Section 5.5.
Grievances related to discrimination based on disability should be directed to the 大学平等机会/平权行动办公室 pursuant to UVU政策165歧视，骚扰和平权行动.
