ECU HOUSING ACCOMMODATION REQUEST
The following guidelines have been established to accommodate ECU students who have
special disability-related needs that may impact their on-campus housing.
Procedure Statement
Priority housing requests based on medical, psychological, or other disability-related
needs are initiated by completing the Housing Accommodation packet and submitting
it to Testing and Accessibility Services (TAS). Upon submission, students requesting
housing accommodations must also formally register with TAS. TAS and Housing and Residence
Life will review requests on a case by case basis. Decisions are based upon availability
of the requested housing arrangement, along with the respective needs of all applicants.
Documentation of a special need or disability does not guarantee that your request
will be approved. This request is only for housing accommodations at ECU related to
the functional/imitations associated with your disability. Additional information
will likely be needed before academic accommodation can be provided. Please contact
TAS for additional information.
Please complete the following three forms and submit to Testing and Accessibility Services.
- Student-completed form: "Housing Accommodation Request".
- Student- or parent-completed form: "Permission for Release of Information".
- Student- and Physician/Professional-completed "Documentation of Disability-Related Need for Housing Accommodation" form with requested information on letterhead.
Application Process
- Submit the completed Housing Accommodation Packet to the Testing and Accessibility Services office.
- Testing and Accessibility Services reviews Housing Accommodation Packet.
- Testing and Accessibility Services sends a letter to the student notifying him/her of the outcome of the review.
This request is only for housing accommodations at ECU related to the functional limitations
associated with this student's disability. Need for academic accommodations must be
documented separately. Please contact OS for additional information. Submit to Testing
and Accessibility Services Director.
