Students must contact Disability Resources and renew their accommodations EVERY Semester they wish to receive accommodations. Students will not need to attend another intake appointment. Students can renew their accommodations by submitting a semester request via the MyAccommodate app in the MySVA dashboard following these steps:

Click Here to Log On to MySVA

1) Select the Symplicity MyAccommodate app from the menu

2) Select Accommodations from the left-hand sidebar.

3) Select “Semester Request” from under the Accommodation expansion.

4) Select “Add New”

5) Select the Semester of Choice from the dropdown menu.

6) Select Renew All Accommodations.

Students must obtain updated accommodation letters each semester by submitting a Semester Request via MyAccommodate. Accommodation letters will be emailed to instructors by Disability Resources after the semester renewal request is made. Students will receive an email verifying the letters have been emailed to their instructors and must follow up with their instructors to confirm receipt. SVA faculty are not required to provide a student with accommodations unless they are emailed an accommodation letter by Disability Resources. Accommodations are not retroactive.

If you would like to make changes to your accommodations or want to speak with Disability Resources staff, please email to schedule an appointment.

To request an appointment please e-mail disabilityresources@sva.edu.

Residential Accommodations: New or returning students should request residential accommodations prior to June 1 for the Fall term, prior to November 30 for the Spring term, and prior to May 1 for the Summer term. While Disability Resources processes requests on a case by case basis after these dates, it may be impossible to implement residential accommodations after housing assignments have been made.
