Accommodation Letter Procedures

Current students should log in to the A&A portal each semester to send a letter to each of their instructors electronically.

• Students can sign in using their EIU ID and password (do NOT include "@eiu.edu" on the EIU ID)
• Follow these steps:
  1. Select the "Accommodation" tab at the top of the page
  2. On the next page, observe the list of instructors next to checkboxes. Select each instructor that should receive the accommodation letter. It is the student's choice which instructors receive the letter
  3. Utilize the space beneath the instructor list to communicate with the instructors if desired. The A&A strongly suggests scheduling a follow-up meeting with instructors
  4. Select the "Email" button on the bottom of the page
  5. If a copy of the letter is desired, a student may select "Print" to either print or download the letter
• Instructors must be given a minimum of one week to prepare for testing accommodations when possible
• If a student is not being accommodated or is experiencing difficulty and would like to have additional accommodations considered, they need to contact A&A right away
• Students should let us know if they have issues or concerns as they happen. This can help prevent more difficult issues from occurring.
• For students with temporary accommodations, please note that these are only applicable to one semester
