Accommodate Information
What is Accommodate?
Accommodate is a comprehensive online data management system that streamlines student accommodation requests, notifications, appointments, test bookings, and more all in one place.
Starting Spring 2023, new and current students can submit academic accommodation requests and schedule appointments via Accommodate. Please note that the test center booking module will launch Fall 2023. We will continue to utilize our current test center appointment procedure and scheduling system for the Spring 2023 semester.
Students requesting a housing accommodation or emotional support animal will need to follow the current processes.
If you have questions about the accommodation request process, or are experiencing difficulty using Accommodate, please contact our office via phone (585-245-5112), email (access@geneseo.edu), or in person (Erwin Hall 22). We will respond to your message within 24 business hours.
