Register with Accommodative Services (New Students)

NEW STUDENTS - REGISTRATION Portal

If you are a student with a documented disability who will need academic accommodations for the upcoming school year, please register with Accommodative Services by clicking on the above registration portal link and filling out the online student application. After providing your information through the portal, you will be directed to upload your most recent psychoeducational evaluation and any other supporting documentation.

If you have any questions, please contact Laura Galt, Director of Accommodative Services and email our office at: accommodations@union.edu.

New student registration and supporting documentation will be reviewed beginning in mid-June. Students are encouraged to begin the application process as early as possible. Once our office has reviewed your documentation, we will contact you if any information is missing or needs updating. We look for evaluations that have been done within the last two years (age 16+) using adult measures. Our director will contact you over the summer to discuss and finalize your accommodations once all relevant documentation is received.

Please note that applications for accommodations submitted during the academic term can take up to two weeks to complete the process.

Accommodative Services offers the following recommendations regarding documentation:

• Psychoeducational or neuropsychological evaluations are most helpful when available. IEPs, 504 Plans, and letters from doctors/providers are also beneficial for review. All letters from providers should be on letterhead, dated, signed and include the diagnosing professional’s name, title, organization, license, or certification.
• Please note that you should not delay meeting with us if you are concerned about not having the right documentation. Our director will discuss specific documentation needs during the initial intake meeting and steps you can take after the meeting. Our priority is meeting with you, not reviewing documentation. Insufficient documentation will not delay the initial meeting, but may delay the consideration and possible approval of certain accommodations.
