At DeVry, students who require accommodations for disabilities are encouraged to initiate the process by reaching out to the appropriate office or department that handles disability services. Typically, this is the Office of Academic Support or a similar department focused on ensuring accessibility and inclusion. The process generally involves submitting documentation of the disability, which may include a recent assessment from a qualified professional. This documentation will assist in determining the appropriate accommodations needed for the student to succeed in their academic pursuits.
It is advisable for students to begin this process early in the semester to allow sufficient time for accommodations to be put in place. Once the request is submitted, the staff will review the documentation and work with the student to develop an individualized plan. Each student's situation is unique, and the accommodations will be tailored accordingly.
For the most accurate and specific information regarding the accommodations process, including any forms that may need to be filled out, students should refer to the current DeVry website. There, they can find detailed guidance and potentially contact information for further assistance.
