Requesting Accommodation Letters
Students who qualify for DSPS accommodations at FLC are responsible for providing the instructor in each of their classes with an official Letter of Accommodation (LOA). Each semester, it is the student's responsibility to request these letters and deliver them to their professors. The letter notifies the instructor of the accommodations students are authorized to utilize in their class. Note: The disability is not disclosed on these letters.
It is important to call or check in with DSPS staff each semester, even if you feel you will not need accommodations for the semester. Doing so will ensure that you do not lose priority registration. Use of any authorized DSPS accommodation is entirely optional; you do not have to use everything we offer you every semester, and you can choose not to use an accommodation or service at any time—even after you have received your accommodation letters.
Note: If you are enrolled in classes at another Los Rios College (ARC, CRC, or SCC), you will need to register with that college’s DSPS office to set up accommodations and letters for classes at that college.
Student Responsibilities
- Accommodations must be approved by DSPS at Folsom Lake College.
- It is the student's responsibility to request their Letters of Accommodation (LOAs) and send them to the professors.
- LOAs are ONLY provided to students who are currently enrolled for the classes requested at FLC. If you are enrolled in classes at another Los Rios College (ARC, CRC, or SCC), you will need to register with that college’s DSPS office to set up accommodations and letters for classes at that college. Waitlisted classes will not receive Letters of Accommodations.
- If you enroll in classes after submitting this form (adding a new class, changing classes, etc.), you are required to submit a new request form for the newly enrolled classes.
- It is recommended that students see their DSPS Counselor at least once each semester. Any change in accommodations will require DSPS counselor approval.
