Â鶹ÒùÔº

Yes. Â鶹ÒùÔº are using the system to manage their accommodation requests, obtain accommodation letters and check the status of upcoming exam/test scheduling.

Yes, as long as it reflects the official language of our accommodation letters. We are asking students to send a copy in the event faculty did not receive the letter via Accommodate. You can always contact the listed access coordinator in the letter to validate the letter.

Yes. Â鶹ÒùÔº were notified that the process did change in terms of obtaining their accommodation letters and providing the letters to their faculty members.

Â鶹ÒùÔº are still expected to schedule a meeting with their faculty and confirm that an accommodation letter has been received through Accommodate.

If a student is confused about this process, please direct them to their Access Coordinator or our front desk at dsinfo@colorado.edu.

Faculty show up in Accommodate if they are given the ‘Primary Instructor’ role in CU SIS when being assigned to a class. The Office of the Registrar sets this up.

We are currently working to extend access to all instructors assigned within CU SIS. In the meantime, you can share an accommodation letter with any instructor of the course who has an educational need to know.

The signing feature is for instructors to use at their discretion. Disability Services will not be overseeing nor expecting signed letters, but it can be a useful feature for instructors to track those students they have met with or whose letters they have reviewed.

This has been brought to our attention and we are working on fixing this issue. The new Accommodate system may generate duplicate accommodation letters in error; you should receive only one copy. However, some courses may receive multiple letters due to having multiple sections. For example, you may receive multiple letters if the course has a recitation, lab and lecture.

We have learned that hybrid model courses may also produce two accommodation letters due to them being listed twice in the course catalog.

The Accommodate system recognizes students as individuals and therefore an email is sent per individual, not per class. Therefore, if you have 10 students in your class who receive accommodations through Disability Services you will receive 10 separate emails. You can review a full list of students through the Accomodate portal after you have received their accommodation letter.

Please disregard any accommodation letters for students who are no longer enrolled in your course.

You may not have students requesting accommodations this semester in your courses.

You will begin to receive email notifications from our office when a student has submitted an Accommodation Letter to be reviewed by you.

If you are receiving email notifications for Accommodation Letters, please sign-in under the Faculty tab. (Student accommodation letters will not populate under your Student tab.)

Please wait until you have your official identikey to access Accommodate. We cannot send Accommodation Letters outside of Accommodate.

Once you have received an Accommodation Letter from a student, please follow the faculty responsibilities. The next step is to schedule a 1:1 meeting with your student to review their accommodation letter and how the accommodations will be implemented in your classroom.

We are working on adding this for future semesters.
