Requesting Notification Letters

What is a Notification Letter?

• Notification Letters provide instructors with an official notification of academic accommodations for the semester.
• Students who are currently eligible for academic accommodations must request Notification Letters each semester by submitting a Semester Request within Accommodate.
• After sending out a notification letter, students must also set up a meeting or other communication with their instructors to discuss their accommodations before accommodations will be implemented.

Please Note: Most housing, dining, and facilities accommodations will continue automatically each semester. However, some accommodations are fluid and students may meet with our Accessibility Coordinators at any point to reevaluate their needs.

How do I send Notification Letters?

   • Watch our Semester Request Tutorial shown below to learn how to send your Notification Letters
2. Reach out to your professor
   • Let your professors know that you want to discuss how the accommodations will work in their class
   • Send them an email, set up a meeting in person or online, or visit them during office hours
3. Keep track of how your accommodations will work in each class
   • It is always a good idea to keep track of what plan was decided for each accommodation
   • Send them a follow-up email about what you discussed or keep track of the decisions you both made in the conversation
