Timeline for Receiving Services

Some accommodations require a substantial amount of preparation time. Once the student is found eligible to utilize an accommodation or service, he/she is responsible for meeting prescribed deadline dates as indicated in DAS Policies and/or the DAS Academic Year Calendar. Students who submit their requests for accommodation on or before established deadline dates are ensured that they will receive those accommodations in a timely manner. Below are examples of accommodations and timelines for which students need to plan.
