Submit your semester request

Once you have registered with CAS and have created an accommodation plan with your Accessibility Advisor, you will need to submit a Semester Request to renew your accommodations each semester.

1

Select Semester request

You can submit a semester request by logging into Accommodate and choosing ‘Accommodations’ in the left navigation menu under the Home symbol, and then selecting ‘Submit a Semester Request’.

On the navigation menu, open the 'Accommodations' drop-down and select 'Submit a Semester Request.'

 

2

Review previously sent semester requests

All previously sent Semester Requests will be listed on this page for you to review. This process must be completed each semester to utilize your accommodations.

The Semester Request page will list all your previously sent semester requests.  

 

3

Add a new semester request

Choose the ‘Add New’ button, and you will see your accommodation plan at the top of the page.

Click the 'Add new' button at the bottom of the Semester requests screen.

 

4

Choose your semester

You will then choose the semester you are requesting accommodations for. Once you choose the semester, your courses will populate on the right-hand side.

Screenshot shows a drop-down selector that allows you to choose the semester. Once you do that, your current courses will appear to the right of the screen.

 

5

Review your accommodations

From here, you will select the ‘Review your Accommodations’ button, which will provide you with the opportunity to customize your accommodation letter.

Choose the 'Review your accommodations' button at the top right of the screen.

 

6

Customize your semester request

You can customize your accommodation request by:

  • Checking and unchecking which classes you want a specific accommodation for.
  • Removing accommodations for a semester by selecting ‘Remove Accommodation’.

Please Note: Removing an accommodation means you are declining this accommodation for this semester; the accommodation will still be available to you in the future.

Each course has a checkbox that can be toggled and a 'remove accommodations' button to allow you to customize your semester request.

 

7

Submit your request

Once you are done reviewing your accommodations, select ‘Submit’ to finalize your request.

Once you have submitted your request, your Accessibility Advisor will be notified. A letter of accommodation will then be sent out with the accommodations you selected to you and your instructors within 5 business days.

Please note that you and your instructor will receive separate notifications, and you will not see your instructor cc’d in the accommodation letter.
