Our staff is committed to assisting students with documented disabilities by providing reasonable accommodations and promoting the use of Universal Design. We look forward to working with you to support your academic journey here at UMass Lowell.

Students who need to register for accommodations, please complete the Public Accommodations Request Online Form and submit your documentation.

Students can only book appointments once their documentation has been received, reviewed and approved.

Once a student is fully registered, students can request their semester accommodations a week before classes begin every semester. (This is when semester request open) An email reminder is sent to all students registered with DS a couple of days before semester request open for the current semester.

Students would need to login onto Accommodate with your student credentials to do so.

For Information on the documentation accepted by our office please visit our Documentation Requirement Page.

Disability Services has provided me the mechanisms I need to succeed, but it’s not just the schedule; it’s not just the pen. It’s them. You build relationships with the people there."
