Re-Registering With The Centre ______________________________________________________________
First-Year Students
When the offer to attend UTM is accepted, please contact the Centre immediately at (905) 569-4699. This will assist in starting the registration process.
- An intake meeting will be scheduled with a professional staff member who has expertise in specific areas of disabilities. Please bring documentation (from an appropriate medical professional/specialist) that identifies your disability and the accommodations you will require to the meeting. The Centre's Medical Certificate is available to print in the online forms section of this website.
- During the first two weeks of classes (or before) please ensure your course / test / examination information is received by the office. Please download the Test / Exam Registration Form and Note-Taking Registration Form, complete it, and return it to the Test and Examinations Officer.
- If you require volunteer services, please contact the Centre immediately.
Students will meet with their Disability Advisor annually so that s/he can update students on new initiatives and review the student’s accommodations.

It is ALWAYS your responsibility to take the initiative and make reasonable requests in a timely manner that you feel could make the university experience a more positive one.
Please remember that the AccessAbility Resource Centre operates in a very deadline-driven environment. It is crucial that you register with the Centre, complete all necessary forms, and confirm for tests and exams in a timely manner. If you miss a deadline for any of these, we cannot guarantee that you will be accommodated. You can meet with your Disability Advisor and/or the Examination Coordinator if you have any questions or concerns.
