Process
The owner of the service animal will be required to meet with the Director of Student Success. Requests are handled through the regular accommodation process.
The following information is required for documentation purposes: - Health records – The animal must have a health statement, including vaccinations from a licensed veterinarian dated within the past year. Generally, legitimate assistance animals are well groomed and receive excellent veterinary care, including an annual checkup. A veterinarian’s statement within the past 12 to 15 months as to good health is necessary. Preventative measures should be taken at all times for flea and odor control.
- Minimum training standards – Verification that the animal has been individually trained to provide the service/assistance to meet the needs of the student/handler.
- Identification – It is recommended that the animal wear some type of commonly recognized identification symbol, identifying the animal as a working animal, but not disclosing disability.
