How long does the accommodation request process take?

While AES makes every effort to process accommodation requests as quickly as possible, the accommodation process can take up to 2-3 weeks from the time the Accommodation Request is submitted.  The processing time can vary based on a variety of factors including but not limited to:

• the volume of requests that our office is processing;
• the completeness of the documentation provided; and
• timely student action with responding to our communication/questions and signing required releases and forms. 

It is important to note that accommodations are not immediately granted and that we process requests on a rolling basis throughout the year based on order received.  Furthermore, approved accommodations are based upon the evaluation of the request; requested accommodations are not guaranteed.

Historically, we experience our largest volume of requests from the middle-to-end of each semester, and about a month before the Fall semester begins; which makes processing time longer during those periods.  It is recommended that you connect with us and begin the process early.  We appreciate your understanding and patience during these periods.
