What is a Letter of Accommodation?

A Letter of Accommodation is simply the version of your academic accommodation plan that is provided to your instructors. It lists the academic accommodations you require in a course. It does not include medical information.

How do I Request Accommodated Tests & Exams?

I am enrolled in a course taking place in-person at Keele campus.
Students enrolled in courses taking place at Keele campus in fall/winter 2021, must request accommodated tests and exams via our Alternate Exam & Test Scheduling website. We recommend students submit these requests at the start of the term.

I am enrolled in a course taking place remotely/virtually.
Tests and exams will be written remotely, students will not come to campus to write. Test and exam accommodations, such as additional time, will be put in place by course instructors.

Questions?
If you have questions or concerns related to accommodated tests and exams, visit the Alternate Exams website or submit a question on the Ask a Question form.
