You must complete the SDS registration process before this accommodation can be considered. Visit www.utsa.edu/disability/accommodations or call 210-458-4157 for more information.
Placement Timelines

- Requests made after the semester begins may take up to 3 weeks for placement
During the Semester
- If accessible furniture is removed or unavailable, contact SDS so we can assist in resolving the issue

- If issues persist, continue working with your instructor and SDS for support
Faculty Notification
SDS will communicate with your instructor once the furniture has been placed to support implementation of your accommodation.
