The Release of Accommodation Agreements portal has features that give you more control.
You can release your course accommodations using the tools in this section.
From you existing accommodations, you can select the ones appropriate for each class based on course design (eg: if there are no exams in the class there is no need to select your exam accommdoations).
If you do require changes, ARC will be notified, and the review process will begin. You may need to meet with your ARC advisor as part of this process. Once any changes have been approved, your instructor will be notified, and you will be able to utilize your accommodations.
Important Things to Know before you get started
· You have the option to send agreements with the same approved accommodations to all of your professors by checking all of the boxes under Courses to Request. If you need specific accommodations for certain courses but not others, you may select specific approved accommodations for each of your courses.
· Familiarize yourself with your syllabus and course design in order to select the accommodations that match your needs for each course.
· ClockWork also has a feature that allows you to notify ARC about any approved accommodation errors or needs for additional accommodations. Please check “I need to change or add an accommodation” and select the Submit button. ARC will reach out to you after reviewing your request.
· You can check the status of your request for each course by returning to the Request for Accommodations link and checking the status column. This important feature allows you to see if your professor has confirmed receipt of your accommodation letter.
· Students are expected to discuss accommodations with their professors, in addition to sending out the accommodation agreements, to ensure all parties are clear on what is needed.
Click the 'Accommodations' button in the main menu in order to get started.
