Student Rights and Responsibilities

Utah Valley University is committed to providing equal access for qualified students with disabilities, in accordance with state and federal laws. Equal access is provided through accommodations on a case-by-case basis through an interactive process with Accessibility Services (AS). As a student with a disability receiving accommodation from AS, it is important to know your rights and responsibilities outlined below.

AS Students Have the Right To:

  • An equal opportunity to access course information and materials.
  • An equal opportunity to participate in and benefit from the university community.
  • To choose whether or not to disclose the nature of your disability to your professor(s). The information you provide to AS is protected by FERPA.
  • To file a grievance if you believe you have been discriminated against.

AS Student Responsibilities:

  • Self-identify to AS as having a disability and provide accurate and timely documentation.
  • Request accommodations each semester in a timely manner and understand that a late request does not constitute retroactive adjustments.
  • Communicate directly with instructors regarding exam accommodations and stay in communication about the time and place of such exams. If testing at the testing center, schedule exams at least 24 hours in advance. 
  • Promptly return any borrowed equipment to AS when it is no longer needed.
  • Meet the same standards—academic, technical, performance and behavioral—expected of all Utah Valley University students.
  • Understand that faculty are not required to provide any accommodation that fundamentally alters the nature of their course or lowers the academic standards.
