Throughout the intake process, students meet with Accessibility Advisors and other Accommodations Service Providers to determine which course, exam, and campus accommodations are appropriate.

Students with existing accommodations have responsibilities each term to ensure that their accommodations remain active.

Student Guidelines

STEP 1: Activate Your Accommodations

1. Log in to .
2. Go to Accommodation> Term Activation> click Add New> filter by term.
3. Select Submit For All Accommodations to activate all of your accommodations for all of your courses.
4. Select Review the Renewal to select which accommodations you would like to activate for each course.
5. Click Submit.
6. Your advisor will approve your activation.
7. Repeat the steps above if you enrol in new courses.

STEP 2: Review Your Accommodation Letter

The official Letter of Accommodation outlines the accommodations you have activated in your courses. An additional copy of the letter is provided to your instructors, which only contains information about your academic accommodations in their course. You will receive an email notification when your letter is available for review.

• Log in to .
• Go to Accommodation> Communications> click on the letter.
• New letters will also appear on your Home screen.
• Carefully read through your letter and Sign it

 If your advisor adds new accommodations during the term or if you enrol in new courses, you will receive a letter reflecting only those changes.

STEP 3: Register Your Exams

If you have activated any exam accommodations, you will need to register your exams. It is strongly recommended that you register all your exams in Accommodate as early as possible—ideally when you receive your course outlines.

Remember to register for all quizzes, tests, midterms, and final exams.

1. Log in to .
2. Go to Exam Registrations> click New Exam Registration> select your Class.
3. Select an Exam from the drop-down menu
   1. If an exam is not listed, you will be prompted to enter in the exam title on the Confirm Exam Registration form.
4. Select Date and Class Location> click Check Availability.
5. Select the time of your exam as indicated on your course outline.
6. Complete the Confirm Exam Registration form> click Submit Request.
7. Your registration will appear under Pending Exam Registrations and you will receive an email confirmation.
8. When staff review your exam registration request, it will move to Acknowledged Exam Registrations.
9. You will receive an email 2 days before your exam letting you know the specific location (building and room). 
   1. If you do not receive a specific location, it means your instructor has opted to proctor the exam themselves. Contact your instructor for details.
10. Your exam location will appear under Acknowledged Exam Registrations.

Deadlines

You need to register at least 1 week in advance, but it’s easiest to think of this as 8 full days before your exam.

Example: If your exam is on Monday, October 27, at 9:00 a.m., you must register by Monday, October 20, at 8:59 a.m.

NOTE: In addition to the 1 week deadline, a hard deadline is set near the end of the term every Fall and Winter. This deadline applies to all exams—including finals, midterms, and quizzes. These dates fluctuate every year, but these deadlines are typically set for roughly 3 weeks prior to the start of the final exam period.

Fall: mid-November | Winter: mid-March
