The following is a list of resources that Disability Services wants all students who work with our office to be aware of. Many of our students benefit from the services listed below.
 

Office of Institutional Equity
The Office for Institutional Equity (OIE) is responsible for the prompt investigation and resolution of all complaints of disability discrimination and harassment, as well as other types of discrimination and harassment. Generally, individuals who need an accommodation or have a disability-related concern should contact ODS first, before OIE. Students contact OIE if they want to file a complaint because either their accommodations were not provided, they want to dispute an accommodation determination of ODS, or if a professor or staff member discriminates against them based on their disability.
 

Confidentiality 
Information submitted to the Office of Disability Services is protected by FERPA but is not part of a student's educational record. This page explains how Disability Services protects your disability related information.
 

Manditory Reporting for Sexual Violence and Harrassment
Staff in Disability and Testing Services are required to report to the Title IX Coordinator any instance of sexual violence or harrassment reported to them. This link gives information about reporting processes and resources for victims of sexual violence.
 

This sheet has simplified directions for how to access our online system to request your accommodations. The process detailed in this handout will start the process of generating the Faculty Notification Letter sent to your professors. You can find more detailed information and a video on our Accommodations Request & Notifications page.
 

Testing Services
Students who take exams with accommodations generally use Testing Services to take their exams which has the facilities to provide their approved accommodations. Exams must be scheduled at least two days in advance of the exam. It is easier for students at the beginning of each semester to take their syllabi to Testing Services to schedule exams for the entire semester. Students who are in the College of Law or are taking classes at the Lorain or Lakeland community college campuses will need to contact the designated person specified in their Faculty Notification Letter for scheduling exams.
