Other departments a student should contact?

Most requests pertaining to dietary options can be satisfied by working directly with Syracuse University’s Food Services and the University’s registered dietitian. If the university’s dietitian recommends that a student qualifies for a meal plan accommodation due to dietary restrictions that Dining Services cannot fulfill, students will be referred to the Center for Disability Resources to formally register and request a disability-related meal plan accommodation. In this case, students should follow the same guidelines for requesting housing accommodations. 

How can students submit an accommodations request?

Housing Accommodation requests can be submitted at https://disabilityresources.syr.edu/accommodations/housing-accommodation-requests/
