Registering with Disability Services

Following one’s acceptance and commitment to attend UNC Charlotte, students seeking accommodations should submit documentation of their disability using the appropriate Documentation Verification Form

Prior to submitting documentation, students should make personal copies of any documentation, as the office can not release that information once it has been received.

Once a DS counselor reviews the documentation, the student will receive a letter of determination regarding their disability.

If the documentation meets University guidelines, the student can make an appointment with a DS counselor after class registration is complete. This initial session addresses the student’s rights and responsibilities, their disability, and how it affects their academic performance. Reasonable and appropriate accommodations pertaining to the specific disability are discussed and determined. For further information about accommodations please visit the Accommodations page.

In the event that a student’s documentation does not meet the guidelines for documenting a disability, a letter will be sent detailing this decision.

For more information on the guidelines for determining a disability and the laws that apply to students with disabilities please visit the Legal page.

Students already enrolled at UNC Charlotte can register with the Office of Disability Services by following the above process.
