Students with medical or physical conditions must provide documentation of the condition and the resulting functional limitations. Such documentation must be prepared by a qualified professional and should be current. The professional who prepares this documentation should include the following information:
- Documentation of current diagnosis that demonstrates functional impact
- Clear evidence and documentation indicating relevant symptoms, which may include impact on academic, social, or vocational functioning, and the relationship between the condition and how the requested accommodation would allow the individual access
- History, severity, and approximate duration of disorder
- Additional recommendations that may assist SDS in determining appropriate accommodations
Medical professionals providing the above information may find it helpful to access our Verification of Physical Disability and complete the form on the student's behalf. ***This is a fillable form, but must be open in Adobe Acrobat or Reader to do so --- not fillable in your browser***
If you have any questions regarding medical or physical disability documentation, please do not hesitate to contact SDS directly.
