Request Accommodations
If you are a student at 九色视频, and you have a disability that substantially limits a major life activity, you can register with the Office of Student Accommodations & Testing (OSAT) and you may be eligible to receive accommodations.
All information is kept strictly confidential and self-identification during the application process is voluntary. However, if you have a disability, not registering with OSAT may delay your process in receiving accommodations.
The need for accommodations are determined by the application process and documentation using the .
What is the AIM Student Portal?
New to the our office, students can access their accommodation information and online profile through the . Using this portal, students can request accommodations, send accommodation notification letters to faculty, acknowledge policies, and more!
New & Current Students
Fill out the New Student Application
If you have never received services or accommodations through the Office of Student Accommodations & Testing, please follow these steps and submit a New Student Application in the AIM Student Portal. An OSAT staff member will contact you to schedule an initial meeting or to follow up with additional questions once you complete the application.
Submit Documentation
The application is simple and will have two-parts:
- On the first page, the application will collect basic contact and demographic information along with a brief questionnaire designed to allow the student to provide a self-report about their disability/disabilities and potential accommodation needs.
- On the second page, you will be able to upload any relevant supporting documentation,
such as doctor's letters, evaluation reports, previous accommodation plans, etc.
- If you do not have supporting documentation to upload at the time of completing the form, you can still submit the application. Upon submission, you will receive a confirmation email that will include a link to upload additional information, if needed or when you have the documentation available.
We must have documentation of the disability before we can move forward with the application process.
Schedule a Meeting
Students may schedule a meeting with OSAT staff members to discuss and learn more about academic accommodations. You can stop by and schedule an appointment in our Accommodations area, located in Grace Wilkie Hall, Room 203, or by calling (316) 978-3309. We are also available by email at OSAT@wichita.edu.
Determine Accommodations
Through a collaborative process, the student and staff member determine appropriate accommodations to assist the student in the classroom and other 九色视频 events and programs.
Complete a Follow-Up Appointment
To secure accommodations, students will need to schedule a follow-up appointment to review and sign policies and procedures, and to learn how to use the AIM Student Portal to manage accommodations, send accommodation notification letters to faculty when continuing accommodations through OSAT, acknowledge policies, and more. Students will also get to connect and meet their Access Coach.
Accommodations do not go into effect until the follow-up appointment is completed, and all paperwork has been reviewed, signed, and submitted.
Continued Services
Students who are already registered with OSAT and are actively receiving accommodations.
Initiate Faculty Notification Letters
Each consecutive semester, students who are already registered with our office and are actively receiving accommodations will need to initiative the process to send Faculty Notification Letters (Continued Services/Accommodation Letters) through the AIM Student Portal to their course instructors if accommodations are needed.
Submit Faculty Notification Letters
On your AIM Student Portal, you will need to select which courses that each letter will be sent to, verify which accommodations you are requesting, and submitting your accommodation requests.
OSAT Review Process
Each request will be reviewed by OSAT staff and emails will be sent out through the AIM Student Portal directly to the instructor of record for the course. The email will be addressed from your assigned Access Coach (or Primary Advisor in the AIM Student Portal) and you will receive a copy of each email when the notifications are sent. If you have any problems with the process, please contact our office immediately by emailing us at OSAT@wichita.edu.
