Requesting Accommodations
The Accessibility Services Office works alongside students with documented disabilities to determine reasonable campus accommodations and facilitate communication with other campus partners. Students with disabilities might register for accommodations with our office for various reasons, including learning needs, psychiatric conditions, physical limitations and medical diagnoses.

Establishing a plan
Students interested in receiving an accommodation must:

Step 2
Request accommodations through the appropriate online form AND submit documentation by attaching electronic documents to the form or emailing the documentation to accessibilityservices@merrimack.edu.
Step 3
Complete the process. You will be contacted by an Accessibility Services staff member to either schedule a meeting or discuss next steps.
The Accessibility Services staff will keep you informed of where you are at in the process of registering with us. Please note that your request for accommodations and documentation activates the process, but other steps are required before you are registered with Accessibility Services.
