The following procedures govern an exam accommodation:
Students with documented disabilities can request housing accommodations via the Disability Accommodation Request Form for CIA Housing. The documentation process is different than when academic accommodations are requested. The two most common housing accommodations requested as Emotional Support Animals (ESAs) and a single bedroom.
Emotional Support Animals provide necessary emotional support to a student with a mental or psychiatric disability that alleviates one or more identified symptoms of an student's disability so that a student may have full participation in and equal access to CIA's housing.
The process to request an ESA is to:
Once all documents are submitted, they are reviewed. If your request is approved, then we will let Dr. Smith, Director of Student Life & Housing, know. He will contact your roommates to make sure they are okay to live with an ESA. After your roommates confirm to Dr. Smith that they are okay with an ESA, Dr. Smith will notify you that it is okay to bring the ESA to your suite. The process to review documents and conduct the roommate check can take time. You should not plan to bring the ESA to your suite the same day that documents are submitted.
Please note: The letter of good health and vaccine records are required annually and must be submitted before you return to campus with your ESA.
While CIA does not have any single suites available, students with documented disabilities, can request a single bedroom as an accommodation. This means students would have roommates within the suite but would have a bedroom to themselves.
Here is the process to request a single bedroom:
Once all documents are submitted, they are reviewed. If your request is approved, then we will let Dr. Smith, Director of Student Life & Housing, know. It is best to request this as early as possible. If all of the room placements are made, it is possible that a single bedroom may not be available.
