Registered Students with disabilities and/or medical conditions that require a specific type of housing assignment may request housing accommodations through Disability Support Services (DSS). DSS partners with Department of Residence Life to coordinate appropriate and accessible room assignments based on documented need and space availability. The forms are editable PDF forms. Please ensure that these are submitted typed. Provider sections need to be submitted by your provider directly to DSS either via email to [email protected] or faxed to (973) 761-9185. If you have not yet registered with DSS, you will need to register with DSS prior to any housing accommodations being reviewed. Please refer to our Getting Started page for instructions on registering or contact DSS at (973) 313-6003.

Things To Remember

• Students must complete the DSS Housing Accommodation Request each year if they wish to continue receiving housing accommodations.
• Requests for accommodations are considered based on need and availability.
• Determinations are made by a committee of appropriate University Officials.
• Students will be notified of a decision via university email, ahead of Room Selection in April-May for returning students, and by July 1st for incoming students.
• Students may submit a housing accommodation request form or support animal request form past the above posted deadlines to be reviewed if new needs emerge past the deadlines. DSS does not have any saved housing, so any accommodations to be provided outside of the initial timeframe for housing placements are considered based on what rooms, if any, are available to accommodate the need. Any needs supported by DSS that do not have availability will go on a list pending placement should a space open up during the year.
• Questions about costs and fees should be directed to Residence Life.
• Students who wish to live on campus must be registered for a full-time course load of 12 credits, unless alternative arrangements have been made through DSS.
• Students will be contacted by an administrator from the Department of Residence Life to discuss the implementation of approved housing accommodation.
