Register and Request Accommodations

At Empire State University, our students drive the process of requesting accommodations for a disability by determining when and if you want to disclose your disability to the university. Accommodations are not provided until you officially disclose your disability by submitting the Disability Declaration and Request for Accommodations.

To officially disclose and request accommodations:

  1. Complete the Disability Declaration and Request for Accommodations form. Determining the functional limitations of your disability may help you determine the accommodations you wish to request.
  2. Submit your completed form to the Office of Accessibility Resources and Services.

All students registered with the Office of Accessibility Resources and Services are responsible for knowing the information provided in theOffice of Accessibility Resources and Services Student Handbook.
