Registering for and Using 你的住宿

Students with disabilities have the right to request disability related accommodations at any point during their time at UC. That includes requests for reasonable modifications to class policies and processes, auxiliary aids and services to support accessible communication, support with assistive or accessible technology, accommodations for housing or campus activities, 和更多的! The first step to receiving accommodations is to complete our registration process and meet with an Access Coordinator.

To request accommodations, complete the 新生注册 Form in our online system 正规博彩平台适应 (you will use your UC email address and password to sign in). 后提交, you'll receive an email with instructions to schedule a meeting with your Access Coordinator. 这个人, interactive meeting is required to request and receive accommodations, 和更多的 details about it can be found on our 新生注册网站 . This initial step is only required once during your academic program. 

Students are encouraged to submit documentation of their disability and past accommodations received (if applicable) as part of the registration process. A diagnosed disability is required to receive disability related accommodations, but documentation of that disability is not required to initiate registration for services. 如果可用, documentation can help ensure full consideration of your disability's impact in the academic environment. Housing and emotional support animal accommodations typically require medical documentation.

Academic accommodations must be determined reasonable and necessary before approval. Students may be asked to provide documentation if:

You will be able to view your approved accommodations in 适应 after meeting with your Access Coordinator.  It is important that you read it carefully and follow up right away if you have any questions or would like to have further discussions. If at any point you want to add or change your accommodations, you can set up another meeting with your Access Coordinator to discuss them. 

Each semester, log into the 适应 System to send accommodation requests to your professors. While you can notify instructors at any point, 甚至在学期开始之前, you cannot use accommodations until you've sent this notification. Most accommodations aren't applied retroactively, so we strongly recommend that you request these early and set up a time to meet with them to talk through your accommodations. 

Your professor will receive an email when you request accommodations for their class and can view your accommodation requests in a portal in 适应. They do not have the ability to see what disability you have or any other information that you have provided us, 只提供您所要求的住宿.

We recommend meeting with your professor to discuss your accommodations. You can visit during office hours or email to schedule a meeting. Many instructors initiate these meetings themselves. 如果受到邀请，我们鼓励您参加. For help preparing for or during these meetings, contact your Access Coordinator.

Professors receive regular training and support regarding student accommodations, but they may still have questions or concerns about specific accommodations in their classes. If an instructor expresses concern about how an accommodation will work in their class or suggests that you should not or do not need to use your accommodations, you can reach out to your Access Coordinator for support. 还记得, you do not have to disclose your disability to your instructor or anyone else at UC, except for the 可访问性资源 office.

Some accommodations can be provided directly by your instructors, while others are done outside of the classroom or through additional request processes. Be sure that you are familiar with the processes for using each of your approved accommodations by reviewing our Accommodation Description site.
