Students with disabilities have a right to privacy regarding their medical diagnoses and medical documentation. For this reason, we ask faculty not to request medical documentation from students with disabilities. If you feel that it is necessary to verify that a student’s request is disability-related, you can contact the student’s assigned Disability Specialist, whose name and contact information is provided at the end of the student’s Letter of Accommodation. The Disability Specialist can review the student’s documentation on file and consult with the student to confirm whether there is a disability-related need for an absence, assignment extension, or other accommodation.
