Fall 2025 Student Updates
Student Disability Services (SDS) has recently updated the process for managing attendance modification accommodations.
Previous Process
In the past, students eligible for this accommodation were asked to answer questions about the attendance policy for each of their courses before SDS sent Faculty Notification Letters.
New Process
-
Faculty will continue to receive Faculty Notification Letters from SDS.
-
Faculty are then directed to their Instructor Portal, where they complete a questionnaire regarding attendance expectations in their course.
-
The questionnaire includes the same questions that faculty were asked to complete in the past.
Accessing Faculty Responses
-
Once your faculty member has completed the questionnaire, only students who are eligible for attendance modification and have requested to use this accommodation will be able to view the responses.
-
To access these responses:
-
Log in to mySDS Online Services.
-
On your SDS dashboard, under the “Accommodations” box, select “Flex Plan.”
-
Review your faculty member’s responses.
-
