Written accommodation letters are issued to the student and relevant faculty and staff. Letters specify approved accommodations but do not disclose diagnostic information.

Students are responsible for providing each instructor a copy of the accommodation letter and discussing implementation logistics.

Faculty must provide the listed accommodations and consult OADS staff if questions arise.

Students experiencing temporary conditions (e.g., broken limb, concussion) may request short-term accommodations through the OADS.

Requests impacting KSU housing or dining must be submitted to the OADS, which will coordinate with Residence Life and Dining Services staff.

KSU strives to ensure that all academic programs are accessible. Physical or technological barriers should be reported to OADS or Facilities Management.

Disability-related information is maintained separately from academic records and shared only on a need-to-know basis.

Students who believe accommodations were improperly denied or implemented may file a grievance with the Section 504/ADA Coordinator.

If unresolved, students may appeal to the Vice Provost for Student Affairs or file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights (OCR).
