Accommodate Information

What is Accommodate?

Accommodate is a comprehensive online data management system that streamlines student accommodation requests, notifications, appointments, test bookings, and more all in one place.

Accommodate is currently just for academic accommodation requests. Students requesting a housing accommodation or emotional support animal will need to follow the current processes. 

If you have questions about the accommodation request process, or are experiencing difficulty using Accommodate, please contact our office via phone (585-245-5112), email (access@geneseo.edu), or in person (Erwin Hall 22).

Accommodate for Students

New Students

Students who are not yet connected to the OAS who wish to request academic accommodations need to submit a Public Accommodation Request (PAR) form. Documentation may be uploaded with the PAR or sent to the OAS separately via email (access@geneseo.edu), fax (585-245-5091), or in person (Erwin Hall 22).

Current Student Accommodation Requests

Students who have already connected to the OAS and who wish to request additional (supplemental) academic accommodations will log into Accommodate with their Geneseo credentials and complete a supplemental accommodation request. Updated documentation may be uploaded with the PAR or sent to the OAS separately via email (access@geneseo.edu), fax (585-245-5091), or in person (Erwin Hall 22).

Renew Academic Accommodations

Students with approved academic accommodations need to submit a Semester Request at the start of every semester they require accommodations. Visit the Renew Academic Accommodations webpage for more detailed instructions for submitting a semester request.
