Application Steps

In order to determine eligibility for services, the following steps need to be taken

Step 1:

All students must complete and submit an Application for Services.

In addition to the Application for Services, students must also submit a verification form completed by an appropriate licensed professional and/or documentation that verifies eligibility under California State University's Eligibility Criteria:

• Documentation must be provided by a professional qualified to diagnose the nature and extent of the disability

• Documentation from a professional must be no more than one year old

• Documentation must contain a specific diagnosis, state major life activities limited by the disability and resulting functional limitations, prescribed medications, and prognosis.

Applications and documentation can be emailed to: [email protected]

Step 2:

Documentation will be reviewed by our SDS-IV Counselors so that eligibility for services can be determined.

The review process can take up to a few weeks, depending on the number of applications that have been submitted. You may be contacted if additional documentation is needed.

Step 3:

Once eligibility has been determined, you will be contacted to schedule an intake appointment with a SDS-IV Counselor. Your intake appointment will review needed accommodations and other services for which you qualify.
