If a student with a disability wishes to request accommodations, please submit a New Student Accessibility Request with the Disability Resources Office located in Van Hoesen Hall, Room C-17 (607-753-2967).

Timeliness of requests for housing accommodations is appreciated; there is a June 1 deadline for submitting medical documentation to Disability Resources for the fall semester and a December 1 deadline for submitting medical documentation for the spring semester. Housing accommodations cannot be guaranteed after these deadlines.
Students with disabilities whose paperwork has been processed through the SUNY Cortland Disability Resources Office and who have been approved to receive housing accommodations will receive those accommodations at the standard double room rate or the West Campus Apartments rate, regardless of the differential room rate of their housing assignment.
