Student Disability Services
Procedure for Applying for Disability Services
Upon acceptance and decision to attend UNI, students with a disability should complete the Request for Services and Documentation Review Form (Word Format).
Students should submit the completed form along with current, relevant documentation to Student Disability Services by mail or fax:
Mailing Address: Student Disability Services, 103 Student Health Center, University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls, IA 50614-0385
Fax: 319-273-6884
The Documentation Verification Specialist or another SDS staff person will review the submitted materials.
If DOCUMENTATION MEETS UNI SDS REQUIREMENTS: Students will receive a letter stating their approval for services and their responsibility to schedule an intake/orientation to services appointment with an SDS staff person.
If DOCUMENTATION IS INSUFFICIENT: Students will receive a letter specifying additional, required information. Students may need to contact their evaluating professional to obtain further information and submit it to SDS for review.
Upon completion of the intake/orientation of services appointment, students are officially registered with SDS and may make accommodation requests at any time throughout the semester. (Keep in mind that accommodations must be requested in a timely manner to ensure service delivery).
Students without documentation should complete a Request for Services and Documentation Review Form as completely as possible and schedule a consultation appointment with an SDS staff person.
