Student Access Services

Ringling College of Art and Design provides reasonable accommodations for all students with documented disabilities. Students must self disclose and submit an application and documentation for registration with Student Access Services. If you have a physical, learning or mental health impacting your academics or other college activities, you should make an appointment with the Director of Student Access Services.

To request services, students must enroll in the AIM system (Access Information Management). Documentation such as doctor’s assessment and evaluation reports, IEPs or 504 plans should be uploaded as directed. Students should select the Student Access Services link from the campus portal to begin the process. Once they are registered with AIM, initial intake must be in person, but accommodations may be renewed online.

In a meeting with Student Access Services, based on documentation submitted through AIM and in conversation with the student, determination will be made on appropriate and reasonable accommodations. Students will complete a Release of Information and an Accommodations Agreement and Notice will be sent to their instructors that explains the accommodations.

Accommodations are not retroactive and must be sought out by the student, and are required to be renewed every semester. Student Access Services provides equal access to classes, instruction, buildings and materials. Grading standards and workloads will not be modified or reduced.
