Applicants should contact the Office of Graduate Admissions. The ADA staff meets with prospective students to discuss potential services and resources, however actual registration with the Office of the ADA is not conducted until the student has made a final determination to attend the University of Delaware. In some cases, accommodations require a considerable amount of time to arrange. Obtain appropriate, formal documentation of your disability. The cost of obtaining documentation is borne by the student, unless the University desires an additional professional opinion, in which case the University bears the cost of the second opinion.
Documentation is considered confidential and subject to a release of information.
A prescription script is not considered appropriate formal documentation. Where time is of the essence, an electronic mail documentation may be appropriate, however, it is expected that such documentation will be substituted by more formal documentation as soon as possible. Schedule an intake meeting with Office of the ADA staff. It is the student s responsibility to initiate the process when seeking an accommodation. When Office of the ADA staff meet with you, we would like to assure that our meeting is uninterrupted.
