As faculty, there are a number of important things you can do within Accommodate. This includes: 

Review Student Letter of Accommodations and listed accommodations

Letter of Accommodation in Accommodate

Accommodation letters are how students notify faculty of their approved reasonable accommodations. Each semester letters are activated by students and sent by Accessibility Services through Accommodate.

As faculty you can view the student’s official letters within Accommodate and it is important to review each student’s individually listed accommodations. You can also print or download the letter as needed. If a letter is downloaded or printed, it is important that the information is kept safe and confidential. Faculty can also review  accommodation letters within Accommodate.

How to Review Letters

Accommodate allows you to easily view and sign student accommodation letters. Once in the system, click:

  1. Accommodation letters
  2. Scroll and review the letter and the specific accommodations
  3. Optional – search using the search function or sort the letters by semester, course, or a date range

Viewing a List vs. Viewing an Individual Letter

One advantage of Accommodate is that it allows faculty to view student accommodations in a few different ways. As faculty you should always view and review the letters directly, but you can also view lists of students.

  • View all students – Accommodate allows you to see a list of all the students in your course. This will include students with and without accommodations.
  • View all students who have shared their accommodations – Accommodate also allows you to filter the list to only include students with accommodations. This is a quick and easy way to see all student accommodations at once.

How to View a List of All Student Accommodations in a Course

Accommodate allows you to quickly view all students in the course to see who does and does not have active accommodations. Once in the system, click:

  1. Courses
  2. Find the course by filtering by semester or selecting a date range
  3. Once in the course, select “Enrolled Students”
  4. You can view all or filter to only view students with accommodations
