Accomodation Letter Request

New Procedure (Please Read)


After you register for your classes:

  • Make your request as soon as possible (requests can be made at the end of the semester before).
  • Return this completed form with a copy of your schedule attached. You may also complete this form on-line at our website and submit it and your schedule electronically. If you drop/add a course, you will need to bring a copy of your new schedule.
  • The copy of your schedule will serve as the list of classes which you would like accommodations. If you are taking a class which you do not need accommodations in, cross that class out.
  • All accommodations listed on the letter will be those approved by Disability Services. For any changes to accommodation requests, you must make an appointment with a staff person.
  • If you are requesting a notetaker, please write the letter N next to the class .
  • Students must allow at least 72 hours for processing.
  • Letters will be sent to the student's UTK email account in a locked pdf file.
  • Print the letter out and bring a copy to each professor. You will be responsible for bringing it to each of your professors as early in the semester as possible.

To ensure that letters are correct, please fill out the information in the box completely.
