Support Services & Academic Accommodations Descriptors

This document grew out of the evaluation of the "Other Disabilities" DSPS Reporting Category. The guidance provided here was developed solely for use in the "Other Disabilities" research activity and should not be construed as a Chancellor's Office directive. However, as participant colleges used these definitions, they expressed the sentiment that this type of guidance was helpful beyond the confines of the study. We, therefore, share this document as a guide that may prove useful in building consistency both within and across programs.  It is not intended or considered to be a final, comprehensive manual in determining service contacts or the definitive answer to questions of what constitutes a service contact and exactly how each should be counted.  As always, when in doubt, present your questions to the experts at the Chancellor's Office.
