Accessing the support you need starts with registering for Accessibility Services at Fanshawe. Our free and confidential process is simple and designed to connect you with the accommodations and resources meant to address your disability needs. Whether you already have documentation (e.g. IEP) or are just starting to explore your options, our team is here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s get started!
When filling out the registration form in step 3, you will be asked to submit disability documentation. You can get started preparing this information ahead of time!
If you do not have documentation at this time but have a disability or suspected disability, please skip to Step 2. You can still meet with an Accessibility Counsellor to discuss your situation and they can advise you on your options for obtaining the necessary documentation for us to support you. Interim accommodations could be explored while you are working on getting your documentation to us.
For students applying to OSAP
Documentation confirming a disability needs to be submitted to Counselling and Accessibility Services. Please have a regulated health professional complete the OSAP Disability Verification Form.
For students not applying for or receiving OSAP funding
Documentation confirming a disability needs to be submitted to Counselling and Accessibility Services. Please have a regulated health professional complete the Confidential Disability Information Form.
In order to register with Accessibility Services, first you will need to pay your non-refundable $250 tuition deposit to Fanshawe. This gives you access to FanshaweOnline (FOL), where you can access the registration form. If you are a current student, you can skip to step 3.
As soon as you have paid your non-refundable deposit to Fanshawe, and your FanshaweOnline (FOL) account is activated:
The sooner your accessibility registration form is received, the sooner you will be connected with your Accessibility Services Counsellor to discuss your needs and plan your accommodations for the coming year.
September is our busiest month for student appointments. Waiting until September to register can mean waiting several weeks before you can meet with your Accessibility Counsellor to set up your accommodations and services.
Monday - Thursday: 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
