The University of Minnesota has identified the Disability Resource Center (DRC) as the office to determine and facilitate reasonable accommodations. We use an interactive process that necessitates your involvement as a student.
- Access consultants in the Disability Resource Center (DRC) meet with you to discuss how your condition impacts your educational pursuits. We then determine accommodations that are reasonable based on these impacts and the courses you are taking.
- Each year or semester, you are responsible for requesting your accommodations through your AIM Student Portal as early in the term as possible. The DRC cannot require instructors to provide retroactive accommodations.
- Students, access consultants, and instructors maintain contact throughout the semester as necessary to discuss any questions or concerns that may arise regarding the essential course requirements and implementing accommodations.
