How To Obtain This Service:

Request an in-class assistant (ICA) from an accommodations specialist. Once your eligibility has been established you will need to complete the following steps each term:

• Submit a copy of your "Student Detail Schedule"
• Complete the Request for Accommodations Form

Student Responsibilities:

1. Attend class regularly. If you will be absent, you must notify the Disability Services front desk as soon as possible. 503.399.5192

3. Immediately notify the Disability Services front desk if your ICA is absent or comes in late.
4. Immediately contact the Disability Services front desk if there is any concerns with your ICA or if your schedule changes.
