Visit Accessibility Services ‒ Current Students if you already receive accommodations through SAS and would like to request semester accommodations.

SAS Connect

SAS Connect is the team that supports students submitting accommodation applications. This team is a students first contact in requesting accommodations at ACC. They are responsible for reviewing applications and documentation, and then connecting students with a SAS Advocate to schedule an initial Access Needs Meeting. SAS Connect can also support student questions about what type of documentation is needed.

Access Needs Meetings

Access Needs Meetings are for students who are enrolled at ACC, who have submitted a SAS Application and are currently experiencing an academic barrier. An Access Needs Meeting is an interactive, confidential, one-on-one session between a student and SAS Advocate to discuss functional limitations and determine reasonable accommodations. Once an Access Needs Meeting is complete students will be able to request Faculty Notification Letters (FNL) and begin utilizing approved accommodations.

For general questions, email [email protected].
