Apply for Academic Accommodations

Academic accommodations are designed to reduce or eliminate barriers in the learning environment in order to ensure students with disabilities have equal access and opportunity to learn and participate fully in all educational programs. Student Accessibility Services (SAS) has a short, three-step application process to receive academic accommodations. Because accommodations are not retroactive, we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

1 Complete the Application

1. Go to GB Access. Sign in with your UW-Green Bay email and password.
2. Start/Resume your application. Choose the SAS Academic or SAS Housing application. 
3. Complete the application form. Please fill in the form as completely as possible. 
4. Save a draft. When you're ready, submit.

2 Submit Documentation

Next you will need to provide documentation of your disability(s), to show that you are eligible for support. It may be a medical, psychological or neuropsychological evaluation. An Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) could be submitted if the diagnostic information and the last IEP evaluation is included. Documentation is medical information that must be provided by a treating professional and needs to have a diagnosis of disability and how it affects you daily.

• If you have documentation, you can upload it as part of the application in GB Access, email it to SAS or bring it into our office, and we will upload it to your application.
• If you do not have access to your documentation at the time of application, please click Save and Upload without uploading any forms. You can log in at any time to upload documentation or send it in at a later time.
• If you need a form for your treating professional to fill out, please use the form linked below.
