Disability Accommodations Process

Penn State and Dickinson Law welcome students with disabilities into the University’s educational programs. Students with temporary or permanent medical conditions or physical, cognitive, or psychological disabilities may be able to receive accommodations to eliminate barriers to their success. Accommodated students do not receive an advantage over others; rather, accommodations allow such students to not be at a disadvantage relative to other students as a result of conditions beyond their control.

The Student Services Team handles student disability accommodations at Dickinson Law. The Student Services Team is located on the second floor of Lewis Katz Hall in offices 233, 237, and 238. All students are strongly encouraged to address their accommodation needs as early in the semester as possible. An accommodation letter must be approved and signed every semester before accessing accommodations.

Please complete the following steps to register for accommodations:

• Complete the intake form
• Collect required documentation and email to the Academic & Student Services Office
• Schedule an intake meeting
• Complete testing accommodation access request (as needed)
