The Eastern Michigan University (EMU) Disability Resource Center (DRC) views disabilities as an integral part of the rich diversity of our campus community and society. We work collaboratively with students, faculty and staff to create an accessible, sustainable, and inclusive educational environment for all students. The DRC acknowledges that classroom and campus accessibility needs and considerations are expanding as more classes and campus experiences incorporate online and technological components. The DRC staff is dedicated to providing access to students, faculty and staff with resources to educate and create an equitable campus experience for the EMU community.

For anyone who recently tried to start the DRC accommodation process and the link/button to our initial request form did not work, we apologize. The link should now be working correctly. Please email [email protected] if experiencing any issues.


 DRC students are advised to review the attached revised instructions on how to submit a semester renewal request. Please continue to inform us if you run into difficulty with this process.

There is no need to resubmit a semester request if you have already done so. A semester renewal request is required only for academic accommodations. It is not necessary to meet with a case manager unless you wish to update or change your accommodations.


The EMU Disability Resource Center has updated its application for accommodations procedure, definitions, and appeal process. Please know it will also be sent to all current students receiving accommodations through the DRC. Please email [email protected] with any questions or concerns.
