Housing Assignment Accommodations

College life doesn’t stop when you leave class — your room is part of your support system too. If a disability affects your housing needs, OAE can help you request accommodations and guide you through the housing assignment process.

More About Housing Assignment Accommodations

Housing Assignment Accommodations are provided with regards to the specific location and/or room type (e.g., wheelchair accessible) to which a student with a disability needs to be assigned.  Housing Assignment Accommodations may include:

  • location on campus (e.g., center of campus, etc.)
  • type of room (e.g., single, wheelchair accessible, etc.)
  • type of house (e.g., small house, large dormitory setting, etc.)

The following links provide additional information about the housing accommodation request process:

Note: To request housing accommodations, you must submit a Housing Accommodation Request Form (HARF). HARF's are available to students registered with the OAE at OAE | CONNECT. Log in to OAE | CONNECT and click on the "Housing & Dining Gear" for more information. The OAE will continue to accept disability-related housing accommodation requests on a rolling basis.

Students should contact the OAE as soon as possible as timely notice is needed to coordinate accommodations.  Similarly, it is the student's responsibility to notify the OAE as early as possible of any problems experienced in obtaining housing accommodations and services.
