RCPD services have enabled me to be independent and self-sufficient which is a major goal of students with disabilities.

Requesting Accommodations

RCPD recognizes that accommodations may be required in order to assist individuals in maximizing their educational and workplace experience at MSU. While the university provides reasonable accommodations, we do not change essential academic requirements or job functions. Accommodation determinations are based on documentation and individualized needs assessment.

Before requesting accommodations, students and employees must identify as a person with a disability. Log on to MyProfile to register with the Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities. MyProfile provides online forms and initiates communication with a Disability Specialist.

For assistance with the accommodations request process, contact a Disability Specialist.

Model Statements

RCPD has provided Model Statements for requesting accommodations to help students, faculty and staff be more inclusive at MSU. In order to include students in all course activities, professors are strongly encouraged to use the suggested model statement in course syllabi. A model statement for programs at MSU is also available for reference to be used in printed materials prior to an event. Contact an RCPD Staff member for assistance with program accommodations.
