Accommodation Requests at UMSL
As a service to students with disabilities who are registered for classes at UMSL, Disability Access Services (DAS) can provide you with a disability notification memo for your courses. This service benefits you as a student by providing instructors information that you may need classroom accommodations or adjustments. It also verifies your eligibility to request such accommodations. Your official memo will be prepared and available on the portal for you to print and provide to your instructors.
Once this form is completed, a member of the DAS team will reach out to you to schedule an intake visit. During this time, you'll discuss your current needs and what accommodations may best serve you. Your intake visit will last roughly an hour and you're only required to meet once no matter how long you attend classes at UMSL. Of course, if you need more support, we're available as a resource. To prepare for your visit, you'll need to bring supporting documentation of your disability that has been approved by a qualified professional.
♦♦PLEASE NOTE: Disability Access Services cannot provide accommodations to a student without verifiable supporting documentation from a qualified professional (ie: IEP, psychological assessment, medical documentation, etc.).♦♦
