To move forward with housing and/or dining accommodations, please complete the following steps with the Office of Student Accessibility (OSA).

Share the LC Housing Accommodation Documentation Form with your provider
Ask your provider to complete the LC Housing Accommodation Documentation Form and submit to OSA

Students who already have OSA Housing Accommodations:

Students who already have housing accommodations with OSA are not required to renew their housing accommodation. Their accommodation is approved for the duration of their time here at LC. If a returning student with a housing accommodation is in need of a new housing accommodation, then they will need to contact OSA within the appropriate Returning Student Accommodation Timeline.

Returning residents with an approved single room accommodation or an accommodation that requires a specific room type or room placement will be given a priority room selection time slot. Please email living@lclark.edu if you have any questions about room selection as a student with a housing accommodation.
