Student Accessibility Services Forms
Please Note:
- Students are strongly encouraged to set up accommodations far before the quarter begins. Please recognize that it may take some time to get an appointment in place.
- All students who would like to receive accommodations must apply for services with Student Accessibility Services (SAS) and go through the interactive process, including those who solely are looking for Housing Accommodations or American Sign Language interpreters.
- If a student is interested in having another person, including a non-SAS staff member or instructor, join an SAS meeting or have access to their SAS information, they must submit an SAS-specific Release of information.
- New and revised accommodations will be processed through Week 6 of that quarter. We are happy to offer support past that date or to discuss accommodations for the next quarter. Students with approved accommodations in place may request them for that quarter at any time.
- Accommodation requests will be processed in the order in which they are received.
Getting Started with Student Accessibility Services:
- New students must submit a New Student Application. To do this: Log into the Student AIM Portal using the activated Shoreline email address and password, and complete the application.
- If the student is solely requesting disability-related accommodations in the Residence Hall, they may skip the application for Classroom Accommodations, but must submit an application for Residence Hall Disability Accommodations.
- Documentation of students' disabilities is not typically required for classroom accommodations,
though it may be beneficial for students to provide this information to SAS.
- For Housing accommodations, we do require written, medical documentation, per the Fair Housing Act. This documentation must verify your diagnosis/diagnoses and the need for the requested accommodations, related to the stated diagnoses. This documentation must be current within three (3) years. Students can upload documentation with their Housing Application. Alternatively, their provider may submit this information using our Verification of Disability template, which also allows them to upload additional documents, such as evaluations or past health records.
- Disability Evaluation Referrals - This document lists providers who may be available to evaluate students for low- or no-cost, and subsequently will provide them with the appropriate documentation that they need to present to the SAS office.
- If a student needs an ASL interpreter, they must request one using the appropriate ASL Interpreting Request Form on our website.
For Current Students
