Chapter 5 – How to Request Additional Accommodations

Follow the process below if there is new documentation, a new diagnosis, or any additional support needed for an existing diagnosis.

This request will not change your existing accommodations.

  1. Log into your SAR Student Portal.
  2. On the left side of the screen under the Accommodations heading, click on “Additional Documentation”.
  3. Click on “Start New Application”.
  4. Select the “Start Term” for the current or upcoming semester.
  5. Complete the 5 questions in the application.
  6. For question 1, select if you have received a new diagnosis or if you are uploading uploaded documentation for a diagnosis that is already on file.
  7. For question 2, list the date of diagnosis (if known).
  8. For question 3, select if you will need additional accommodations considered. (If you need additional accommodations, schedule a follow up with your Primary Specialist upon submission.)
  9. For question 4, list any medications associated with this diagnosis that could negatively affect your academic progress on or off campus.
  10. For question 5, share any other information you feel is important.
  11. Click “Submit Request.” Your submission is not yet complete!
  12. Go to “Upload Files”, enter a file title, choose your file, and select “Upload File”. Repeat as needed.

You will receive an email from the SAR Center informing you that your application has been received. Please note that the turnaround time to process your application is 3-5 business days. (This may be longer at the beginning of the semester.) This email will also contain instructions on scheduling a follow-up appointment.

Until the appointment is completed, the new accommodations will not be implemented.
