How do I request accommodations?

Students seeking reasonable accommodations or support services while enrolled at SCUHS can do so through the Student Services Office. We encourage you to register with SSO as early as possible to allow sufficient time for the approval and notification process. 

 

Step 1: Review and complete the following forms:

Step 2: Submit your complete request and schedule an appointment with the Student Services Office

Email your completed forms and supporting documentation to StudentServices@scuhs.edu. A complete request includes your supporting documentation from a qualified examiner and a Request for Accommodations form completed by you. 

 

Important Notes about Accommodations

  • We strive to review completed accommodations applications within 1 week of receipt. Requests made on a short notice will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. 
  • A request for accommodations does not guarantee approval. It does guarantee an interactive process to reach a decision on the request and a full review of the request and the student's file. 
  • Accommodations cannot fundamentally alter a student's program or impose an undue burden. An accommodation provided at a previous institution may not be appropriate for your program at SCUHS. 
  • Accommodations are determined on a case-by-case basis and are dependent on a student's current functional limitations. 
  • Accommodations are not retroactive. They are active from the time they are approved. 
  • Students are responsible for providing reasonable notice of intent to use an accommodation. For example, students receiving extra time on exams should notify their instructor 1 week in advance of an exam.
