Temporary Accommodations

1. Complete and submit the Disability Resource Center Student Application.
    
2. Submit documentation of a temporary disability/condition. Students are strongly encouraged to upload their disability documentation while completing their DRC Student Application.
    
3. A DRC staff member will contact you to schedule a Temporary Accommodation Intake Appointment to discuss your request. Please be aware that this is a REQUIRED appointment, as the information obtained is an essential component in the determination of temporary reasonable accommodations and services.

Students requesting notification of absence should submit requests to SUCARES@salisbury.edu after notifying their professors. Tiffany Arrington-Student Affairs Case Manager will provide follow up, as appropriate. Questions regarding absence notification can be directed to the Office of Student Affairs at 410-543-6080. 

All documentation submitted should be prepared by a qualified professional. A qualified professional is defined as an individual who is licensed or is a formally recognized expert in the medical, psychological, and/or educational field with the authority to make diagnoses and/or recommendations in their specific field of practice. Documentation of a disability may include assessments, reports, and/or letters from qualified health care providers, psychologists, or diagnosticians, and/or information from a previous school. In order to ensure an objective assessment, the professional completing the evaluation must be an impartial individual who is not related to the student. Documentation of a disability should include the following:

• Typed on appropriate letterhead and include the name, date, title, address, phone number, and signature of the professional who prepared the documentation.
• A statement of a specific diagnosis of a disability including diagnostic codes, as appropriate.
