Semester Request Form

Once you are approved for accommodations from Disability & Access Services, you must complete the Semester Request Form each semester for every class you need accommodations in. This notifies DAS which courses you would like us to send your Faculty Accommodation Letters (FALs). Instructors are not able to coordinate your approved accommodations until they receive your Faculty Accommodation Letter.

In order to request your Faculty Accommodation Letter (FAL):

  1. Log in to Accommodate
  2. On the side panel under “Accommodation Menu”, click on “Semester Request”
  3. Read and sign the Rights and Responsibilities form
  4. Click “Add New”
  5. Select the current semester
  6. Choose the accommodations you want to renew for the current semester
  7. Select the courses you want your letter sent to. If you do not select a course, we will not send a letter to the faculty member for that class, and you will not receive accommodations for that class.
  8. Click “Submit”
  9. Please submit your semester request as soon as possible. In the coming days, we will be sending out FALs in the order they are received. Your accommodations are provided from the date the FAL is sent to the faculty members and are not retroactive. The sooner we receive your request, the sooner your academic accommodations can be implemented!

To request additional accommodations, please call our front desk to schedule an appointment. Feel free to contact your assigned staff member via email or call to schedule an appointment if you have any questions.

Please note that all undergraduate and most graduate students must submit the semester request form. Graduate students at GMS, GSDM, LAW, MED, and SPH should NOT submit a semester request, but instead, should contact the Dean of Student Affairs and/or Registrar’s Office at their college to make sure their accommodations are in order.
