In compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Office of Accessibility works closely with students, administrators, and faculty to develop and implement individualized accommodations tailored to students' needs to reduce the impact of their disabilities on academic functioning or upon other major life activities.

In keeping with our Jesuit mission, 天美传媒视频无限制观看 also recognizes the need for accommodations when a student is suffering from a temporary impairment and such impairment is impeding academics or access to campus life. The Office of Accessibility will work with the student with a temporary impairment to provide accommodations should the student’s temporary impairment impact academics or other major life activities.

 

Students with disabilities or temporary impairments requesting academic, housing or other campus life accommodations or modifications to University policies on the basis of a disability must complete the interactive accommodation request process with the Office of Accessibility.

In order to request accommodation through the Office of Accessibility, a student must first create an accessibility profile and upload supporting documentation through the Accessibility & Accommodations task portal on my.fairfield. Such documentation should follow the Office of Accessibility’s Documentation Guidelines posted on the Office of Accessibility’s website. Should a student need assistance with creating their online Accessibility profile and uploading their documentation, please contact the Office of Accessibility at ooa@fairfield.edu or call ext 2615.

The accommodation request process is an interactive process between the student and the Office of Accessibility.  Once the student has initiated the online process, the student will meet with an Office of Accessibility staff person complete the intake process and discuss what accommodations the student is eligible for at 天美传媒视频无限制观看. Students with a disability approved for academic accommodations will be able to access their faculty notification letter of their accommodations through their Accessibility portal on my.fairfield.  Once approved for accommodation, each semester, students will send their professors their accommodation letter for their courses through their Accessibility task portal. Students with temporary impairments approved for academic accommodations will also provide their faculty notification letter of accommodations through their Accessibility portal.

Students with disabilities or temporary impairments requesting exceptions to the housing and/or other campus policies or requesting housing or other campus accommodations due to their disabilities must register with the Office of Accessibility and complete the interactive intake process. In addition to registering with the Office of Accessibility, students with disabilities or temporary impairments requesting housing accommodations on the basis of their disability or temporary impairment in order to achieve equal access to campus living must also complete the Housing Policy Exception Form located online on Residence life’s website. Any student with disabilities or temporary impairment who needs help completing this form can contact the Office of Accessibility for assistance at ooa@fairfield.edu or ext. 2615. Please note that any housing or campus life accommodations or exceptions to University policies is limited to the time period necessary to address the immediate need of the student and does not exceed a single school year. Students with disabilities or temporary impairments need to fill out the Housing Exception Form every school year that they are requesting a housing accommodation or exception. In addition, students with disabilities or temporary impairments requesting campus life accommodations also need to request such accommodations or exceptions each school year.

In determining whether a student with a disability or temporary impairment is eligible for a housing or other campus life accommodation or is eligible for an exception to housing or other campus policy on the basis of their disability or temporary impairment, the Office of Accessibility will meet with the student to discuss the student’s request and documentation. The Office of Accessibility may also consult, as necessary, with other campus partners, including but not limited to, Residence Life, the Student Health Center, Counseling & Psychological Services, Public Safety and Dining Services to help determine whether an accommodation or exception to a housing or other University policy is reasonable or whether other reasonable accommodations are available and can be made.

Any student with a disability who is denied an academic, housing, and/or other campus

life accommodation that they have requested on the basis of their disability, may appeal

天美传媒视频无限制观看 has designated the senior director of equity as ADA/Section 504 Coordinator. Contact Information: equity@fairfield.edu.

 

天美传媒视频无限制观看 is committed to providing reasonable accommodations when such accommodations may be necessary to afford people with disabilities an equal opportunity to use and enjoy University housing.  A reasonable accommodation request may include a change or exception to a rule or policy, or it may be a physical change to a unit or common area that is needed because of a disability.  Such requests for accommodations are reviewed on an individualized and case-by-case basis. 

The Office of Accessibility (“Accessibility”) is responsible for evaluating whether a student with a disability is eligible for a reasonable accommodation in University housing.  In reviewing a student’s specific request, Accessibility will consult with the Office of Residence Life, the Health Center, and Counseling and Psychological Services as necessary to determine whether the requested accommodation is necessary and reasonable.  Students who reside or intend to reside in University housing and who believe they need a reasonable accommodation must contact Accessibility.   

Employees who reside on campus and who are requesting reasonable accommodations related to University housing must contact Human Resources. 

For housing-related reasonable accommodation requests involving Assistance Animals (including emotional support animals), please refer to the Procedures for Requesting Assistance Animals in University Housing contained in the University’s Animals on Campus Policy for additional information.  

Student requests for reasonable accommodation related to the University’s housing policies and practices, including requests involving Service and Assistance Animals, are governed by the following procedures: 

1. Prior to requesting a housing accommodation, students must be eligible for on-campus housing by completing any applications required by Residence Life (e.g., Online Housing Application) as well as complying with all Residence Life deadlines (e.g., housing application deadline, room reservation fee deadline, etc.). Students are advised to visit the Residence Life website for specific information regarding eligibility and deadlines for housing.  

2. Students requesting a housing accommodation on the basis of a disability must register with Accessibility. In order to request an accommodation through Accessibility, a student must first create an accessibility profile and upload supporting documentation through the Accessibility & Accommodations task portal on my.fairfield. Such documentation should follow Accessibility’s Documentation Guidelines posted on Accessibility’s website and should establish the need for an accommodation or an exception to a housing policy. Should a student need assistance with creating their online Accessibility profile and uploading their documentation, please contact Accessibility at ooa@fairfield.edu. Please note that documentation solely from a paid “Emotional Support Animal” verification service will be insufficient. In addition to registering with Accessibility, the student must complete the Housing Policy Exception Request form located on the Residence Life website   

3. Any student making a request for a housing accommodation should complete the intake process with Accessibility and complete the Housing Policy Exception Request form as soon as practicably possible before moving into the University Housing.  If the request for an accommodation is made fewer than 60 days before the individual intends to move into University housing, the University cannot guarantee that it will be able to meet the individual’s accommodation needs during the first semester or term of occupancy, but will work with the student to discuss alternative options.  

4. If the need for housing accommodations arises when an individual already resides in University housing, the student should contact Accessibility and complete the intake process if the student is not already registered with the office, then complete the Housing Policy Exception Request form as soon as practicably possible.  The University cannot guarantee that it will be able to meet the individual’s accommodation needs during the semester or term in which the request is received, but will work with the student to discuss alternative options. 

5. After the student has initiated the online process for requesting the housing accommodation with Accessibility and completed the Housing Policy Exception Form, the student will meet with an Accessibility staff person to discuss the student’s request for accommodations.  Accessibility will also consult with the Office of Residence Life (“Residence Life”) to discuss the student’s request.

6. Accessibility will notify Residence Life regarding students who are supported for accommodations. Assignments and arrangements for accommodations will be made directly by Residence Life based on the supported accommodations. While consideration will be given to area preference, assignments will be based on the supported accommodation(s) and availability.

7. Students who are denied a requested housing accommodation under this policy may appeal the decision by contacting the senior director of equity ADA/Section 504 Coordinator, in writing and by following Fairfield’s ADA grievance policy. Students can contact Accessibility at ooa@fairfield.edu for more information regarding the grievance procedure.

天美传媒视频无限制观看 will not retaliate against any person because that individual has requested or received a reasonable accommodation in University housing, including a request for a Service or Assistance Animal. Reports of retaliation may be made to the ADA/Section 504 Compliance Officer.
