RETURNING, GRADUATE STUDENTS, AND STUDENTS WITH INTERNSHIPS/CLINICALS: Please don't forget to set an appointment with our office to discuss any adjustments to accommodations, clinical or internship accommodations, or Graduate School accommodations as early as you can before the start of the Fall 2025 Semester. This is necessary if you have not updated your accommodations that you received as an undergraduate as they may not translate over to graduate courses very well. For returning students that took a semester or more off, you will need to meet with us to re-activate your accommodations.
Students if you have transferred to another NMSU campus or are coming from another NMSU campus, please call our office to notify us so that we can assist with transferring your accommodations to your new campus accessibility office.
