Registration

Students must register annually with DSO to receive services and exam accommodations. This means that you have to return each academic year for a review of the previous year's accommodations, how you managed academically, and any changes that may need to be implemented. It is your chance to let us know how your previous year went and how we can best continue to meet your needs.

NB. All students must register with DSO before November 7 to be accommodated for December exams, and before March 7 for finals in April.

Why must I register with Disability Services every year?

Regular feedback allows students and staff to know what's working, and what needs to be changed or modified. By renewing your accommodations annually, they reflect your current accommodation needs as your move through your program of study.
