To ensure the maximum success for student accommodations, you should submit your DSPS accommodation checklist to the professor at least a week in advance of any assignment or test. This is to ensure adequate time is there to meet your testing and/or assignment needs. Failure to do this could result in the inability of staff to make appropriate arrangements.
