• Students with learning disabilities will need to submit their most recent full-scale psycho-educational documentation supporting their diagnosis.
• Students requesting housing accommodations need their treating health care provider to complete both the Documentation Form and the Housing and Meal Plan Addendum.

Documentation may be submitted in one of the following ways:

• In person, by visiting DS in Fretwell 230

• By email: disability@uncc.edu
