Documentation Requirements

All students requesting academic accommodations and/or services must submit documentation of a disability to Disability Services. Since Disability Services determines the accommodations and/or services based on the information in the document submitted, it is important to meet Disablity Services requirements with respect to currecy, completeness and appropriateness, and an evidence of a substantial limitation of a major life function.

You are advised to review our documentation requirements before submitting your documentation. And also, to share DS documentation requirements with your diagnostic evaluator because information from the evaluator's report is the basis for determining accommodation.

Accommodations recommended by the evaluator, those received in high school, or those provided on the college entrance examinations (SAT or ACT) will be provided only if specific test results support the need for the accommodation.

Documentation will be reviewed after you confirm with the university unless you request an early review.

All documentation is confidential and should be submitted by drop them off at DS main office, or mail or fax them to:

University of Colorado at Boulder
