How Can I Help My Student at FSU?

You can help your student by:

• Looking over the Disabilities Services Web site together.
  
  
• Requesting a Disabilities Services brochure or Adaptive Technology brochure from our office (call us at 231-591-3057).
  
  
• Reading the Student Information Web site contains detailed information about forms and procedures
  
  
• Going over the student's IEP or 504 plan and making sure your student knows what the diagnosis says and can explain what accommodations have been helpful.
  
  
• Review the skills checklist and questionnaire with your student.
  
  
• Visiting our page entitled "How Do I Request Accommodations?" for information on documentation guidelines to be sure that your student comes to Ferris State University with all of the necessary paperwork and understands the procedure for requesting accommodations
  
  
• Encourage your student to register with Disabilities Services where they will be coached on how to proceed in obtaining reasonable accommodations.
