Requesting accommodations is a 3-part process:
University students are responsible for identifying themselves as a person with a disability. At S&T this is done through the Student Accessibility and Testing office.
To self-identify with SAT, complete an application in minerAccess. For assistance with the application, please see the minerAccess Application Guide or contact the Student Accessibility and Testing at dss@mst.edu.
You can submit documentation directly into minerAccess or submit it to be uploaded to your application. Contact dss@mst.edu with any questions about documentation.
Once SAT has received your application and documentation, we will contact you to schedule an intake interview. In this interview, an accommodation advisor will talk with you about your previous educational experiences, past accommodations, what has been effective and ineffective in providing access, and the next steps.
Questions or Concerns
If you have questions or concerns at any point in this process, an Accommodation Advisor would be happy to talk with you. Contact SAT at dss@mst.edu to schedule an appointment.
If you would like to request accommodations for your A&R Day, math placement test, and/or any new student event, complete a Voluntary Disclosure of Disability (VDD) Form. When we receive your VDD form, we’ll contact you to discuss your accommodation needs for PRO.
Students requesting dietary, residential, and/or emotional support animal accommodations should follow the process described above in the "Getting Started" section.
Documentation for residential and dietary accommodations must include a diagnostic statement and address the disability-related need for the accommodation requested.
Once you have been approved for accommodations, you will receive a student eligibility letter along with information about faculty notification letters.
Each semester, you must request which accommodation(s) you will use for each class.
Accommodation advisors work with students to provide reasonable and appropriate accommodations dependent upon each individual situation. Some of the more common accommodation requests are listed below.
