ESA Request – Application Processes

Continuing ESA Request (Keeping the same previously approved ESA accommodation)

Changing ESA Request (Requesting change to a previously approved ESA accommodation)

Please keep the following in mind:

Diagnosis of a medical condition does not, in and of itself, automatically qualify you for an ESA accommodation.
Requests will be accommodated based on the level of need.
Recommendations or statements made by your physician should not be interpreted as automatic approval for an ESA.
All housing/ESA accommodations approved in fall will rollover to spring term, no new applications are required.
If you have questions about your request or approved accommodation, please contact Disabilities Resources at disabilities@elon.edu or (336) 278-6568. If you have questions about placement or location, please contact Residence Life at residencelife@elon.edu or (336) 278-7300.
