Every semester you need to activate your accommodations at least two days after you’ve registered for classes. (Note: It takes up to 48 hours for the Student Center to sync with the Access Portal.) Accommodations can be activated by following the Access Portal Directions below.
Once the accommodation notification has been sent to your instructor, talk with them about the best way to implement your accommodations.
Access Portal Directions
To activate your accommodations for the semester:
- Log in to the Access Portal with your Boise State username and password.
- Note: You may be asked to sign any policies or procedures that are applicable to your eligible accommodations.
- Scroll down until you see the list of your classes.
- Check the box next to each class that you need accommodations for.
- Click “Step 2 – Continue to Customize Your Accommodations”.
- Check the box next to each of the accommodations you need to activate for each class.
- Click “Submit Your Accommodation Requests.”
Once your accommodations have been submitted, your assigned Access Coordinator will review them. Then, they will send your accommodations to each of your instructors for the classes you activated them for. You will receive an email copy of your accommodation notifications when they are sent.
Now What?
Now that you’ve activated your accommodations, make the most out of your accommodations and ensure you understand the responsibilities that come with them by exploring our Accommodation Resources.
