Notifying Faculty of Accommodations: Student Guide

All students registered with the DRC must use the Accessible Information Management (AIM) portal to notify instructors of accommodations and begin the interactive process. Accommodations are not retroactive, so early proactive communication with faculty is essential. The DRC recommends that students send accommodation requests to faculty as soon as accommodations have been approved and the student has enrolled in classes. Instructions on how to do this are found below:

1. using your official GBC email and password. Please note: your GBC email is your school-issued email ending in 鈥済bcnv.edu.鈥� If you are unsure of how to access your GBC email, please contact the GBC HelpDesk by phone at 775-327-2170 or by email at helpdesk@gbcnv.edu.
2. Once you are logged in, you will see your dashboard, which will show 鈥淣o Accommodation Requests Found.鈥�
3. Proceed to 鈥淪tep 1: Select Class(es),鈥� under 鈥淪elect Accommodations for Your Class鈥� on the lower half of the page. To begin the notification process, check the box next to each class that you would like to use your accommodations in. Please note that your courses will only display if you are officially registered for them. Once you鈥檝e selected your classes, click 鈥淐ontinue to Customize Accommodations.鈥�
4. Once you鈥檝e selected your classes, click 鈥淐ontinue to Customize Accommodations.鈥�
5. On the next screen, you will see all the classes you have selected. Here you can select which accommodations you want to use in each class. As a reminder, you are not required to use all or any of your accommodation in all your classes. Only those that you select here will be visible to your professors.
6. For each class, check the box next to any accommodation that you want to use in that specific class.
7. Once you鈥檝e made your choices, click 鈥淪ubmit Your Accommodation Requests.鈥� Note: If you click 鈥淏ack to Overview鈥� you will be taken back to your dashboard and your choices will not be submitted.
8. After you submit, you will be taken back to your dashboard where you will see an update stating, "The system has successfully processed your request." This means the accommodations you selected have been sent to your instructors.
9. After sending accommodations, make sure to reach out to your instructors as soon as possible to discuss implementation.
