AACE REGISTRATION
Thank you for connecting with AACE. If you are a student with a condition or disability that impacts a major life function (like hearing, seeing, walking) or a condition that impacts a major bodily function (like immune system, cardiovascular system), you may have a qualifying disability or condition under ADA. Often times, you may also have had some history of accommodations. If you don’t presently have documentation that you can upload, you may start the registration process by fully disclosing and describing your disabilities/conditions and your history of accommodations. Please select the link below that best describes your specific situation.
- I have documentation and am ready to register (A link to upload your disability documentation will be provided within the registration form. You will need a GSU student email account to complete this registration form).
- I do not have my documentation readily available to me but can describe my disability/condition and history of accommodations (A link to upload a word document describing your specific situation will be provided within the registration form. You will need a GSU student email account to complete this registration form)
- I’m unsure and would like to schedule a meeting to speak with someone. (You DO NOT need a GSU student email account to complete this inquiry form)
Complete and current documentation is required as part of the request for accommodations. The University System of Georgia disability documentation guidelines and forms will help ensure that students provide appropriate documentation of their disability. Students can either give the guidelines to their health care provider to use for drafting a letter documenting their disability or give them the form to complete instead. Note: Only one of the two forms of documentation is required, not both.
Psychological Documentation Form ESA A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document the different types of psychological disorders. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in a housing setting.
Communications Disorders Documentation Form A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document the different types of communication disorders. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in an academic setting.
Psychological Disorders Documentation Form A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document the different types of psychological disorders. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in an academic setting.
Learning Disabilities Documentation Form A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document a learning disability. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in an academic setting.
Health Impairments Documentation Form A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document the different types of health impairments. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in an academic setting.
Brain Injuries Documentation Form A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document the different types of brain injuries. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in an academic setting.
Autism Spectrum (Asperger's) Disorder Documentation Form A form that can be completed by the medical professional to document Autism Spectrum (Asperger’s) Disorder. The form highlights the functional limitations that may affect the student in an academic setting.
Temporary Impairments
The Access and Accommodations Center (AACE) recognizes that individuals with temporary impairments due to injuries, surgery or short-term medical conditions (e.g. broken limbs, hand injuries, mobility limitations during recovery from surgery) may benefit from temporary campus assistance, support services and resources.
Request Temporary Assistance
To request temporary assistance from AACE, students must submit a Registration Form together with supporting medical documentation. Prescriptions will not suffice for this purpose.
Duration of Temporary Assistance
Temporary assistance will set to expire based on the expected duration of the limitation documented by the qualified medical professional. AACE may request additional documentation to verify the need for continued services after the estimated duration of the condition has expired.
Temporary Assistance Appointments
AACE will schedule an orientation appointment with student who has requested Temporary Assistance once all required documentation has been received. Students will be contacted by AACE to schedule an initial appointment. The meeting will include a discussion of students’ temporary assistance needs and available support services and resources.
Resources:
- Parking and Transportation
Georgia State does not issue disabled parking placards. Students who are interested in obtaining a disabled parking permit must apply for one through the state. If the student is unable to use the campus transit (bus) system, they may be eligible for MARTA Mobility. - University Housing (on-campus student housing)
University Housing residents who have housing needs due to a temporary impairment should complete the Temporary Assistance Form and submit appropriate documentation. Requests to modify room assignments are subject to space availability.
