Access Mission Statement

Housing and Residence Life is committed to providing reasonable housing accommodations to students with disabilities as well as minor modifications for health-related needs. In collaboration with the Office of Accessibility Services, Housing and Residence Life will partner with students to identify reasonable accommodations to promote academic and personal development on campus and enhance a successful residential experience. Eligibility for housing accommodations or health related needs is determined by:

• The impact of the student鈥檚 disability or medical condition as it pertains to residential housing
• Available housing options at the time of the request

Housing and Residence Life is pleased to offer texting capabilities to our main phone line. Please text us at 740.593.4090.

Guide to Housing Accommodation Requests

In the event that you have a disability that warrants reasonable housing accommodations or you have a medical condition that requires minor adjustments within the residential facilities, register with the Office of Accessibility Services and complete their registration process.

Once registered, and documentation is provided, Accessibility Services will determine the most appropriate accommodation based on the need of the student. Although preference of green and hall may be requested along with your accommodation request, not all preferences can be met. Once a determination has been made by Accessibility Services, Housing and Residence Life will contact the student to review options in support of specific needs and to finalize housing details.

Should you disagree with the housing accommodation determination, you may contact Accessibility Services (disabilities@ohio.edu) to appeal the accommodation decision.

• Additional and/or updated documentation may be requested if there is a change in disability impacts or if the student requests new or additional housing accommodations than what had been previously approved.
