Academic Accommodations: 

 Students with disabilities who are requesting academic accommodations must register with the Center for Students with Disabilities (CSD). The CSD engages in an individualized interactive process with each student and their faculty to review requests for academic adjustments (accommodations) and modifications on a class-by-class basis. Comprehensive information about requesting accommodations is available at the CSD’s Request Accommodations page.
