Follow these steps to set up your accommodations using the Access Plan
1. Look for email notifications from access@dickinson.edu the week prior to the start of each semester* letting you know when your Access Plan cards will be ready and how to confirm your understanding of the Access Plan process.
2. Submit your Access Plan to your professor(s) following the below process applicable for you (which, for those with a test-taking accommodation, includes entering all test dates before meeting with your professors):
- Instructions for students WITH test-taking accommodations
- Instructions for students WITHOUT test-taking accommodations
3. Click the "Request a Meeting" button in your Access Plan to schedule your accommodation planning meetings with each professor.
4. Meet with each professor to review your Access Plans. If you and your professor decide that changes are needed, be prepared to revise and re-submit your Access Plan during your meeting.
5. Ensure, before concluding your meeting, that your professor has (1) has "Acknowledged" your Access Plan, and (2) if you have test-taking accommodations, has noted who will be administering all tests that you entered into your Test-Taking Set-Up. .
