Housing and Dining Accommodations

The student must submit a Request for Housing/Dining Accommodations.

A request for accommodations submitted after the priority deadline (Refer to Request Deadlines below) will be filled only as space allows.

Once a request has been received, a coordinator will reach out to the student to discuss their request and next steps in the process.

The student must provide documentation from their health care provider. Documentation should be typed, dated and signed on the provider's letterhead.

• Identify a specific, current diagnosis, indicating original diagnosis date, frequency and severity of symptoms for the individual.
• Describe how the student's diagnosis impacts/limits the student in a post-secondary housing/dining setting.
• Provide recommendations for specific accommodations with explanation and support including why these are pertinent to the housing/dining situation.
• Medications and any important side effects to note, if applicable.

When all required documentation is submitted and the student has spoken with a Coordinator, the request for accommodations will be reviewed by the Document Review Committee to determine eligibility.

• Students that are approved for a housing accommodation will be placed in a room that meets their required accommodations.
• Please understand that not every residence hall room will meet the approved accommodations.
• Preferences will be considered when available and for applications completed by the priority deadline.

Students must follow all of University Housing Services deadlines regarding contracts, deposits, meal plan choice, etc. Once your housing placement is finalized, University Housing will release details to all students via their portal by the date stated on the housing website (Typically the end of July).

Once documentation has been reviewed by the Documentation Review Committee, the student will be notified of the outcome.
