Created Nov 02, 2022How to Request Accommodations in AIM
Every semester, students will use the AIM Student Portal to send Faculty Notification Letters (Accommodation Letters) to their professors if accommodations are needed. The student will select which classes they need accommodations in, verify which accommodations they are requesting for each class, and then submit their accommodation requests through the system.
