Home should be a place you can rest, recharge, and function day-to-day. Through housing and facility accommodations, OAE helps ensure your residential and campus spaces work for you — not against you.

More About Housing Facility Accommodations

Housing Facility Accommodations involve alterations and modifications to the actual residential facilities, such as adding a power door, or installing horns and power alarms for a student who is deaf.  Modifications of this nature must be reviewed for authorization through the OAE and supported by medical documentation. Please note that if the requested accommodation includes climate control or environmental allergy reduction, you must describe the severity of the condition and any relevant treatment information. Your documentation should substantiate this.

  • If the accommodation is supported, the OAE communicates the information to Housing Operations staff.

Request a Facility Accommodation

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.
