University of Arizona

Living on campus is an important part of the college student experience.  Students with disability or medical conditions who plan to live on campus should complete the University housing application as soon as possible.

If you are seeking accommodations in University housing, complete the Request for Residence Hall Accommodation form after you have completed the Residence Life housing application and the DRC new student form.  The Disability Resource Center (DRC) will receive and review your request for housing accommodations, and an Access Consultant will be in touch.  We will want to understand how your housing request is related to your disability and may ask you to submit specific medical or disability information.

Your room will be assigned through DRC. Your roommate will not necessarily be another disabled student but will be assigned by Residence Life. If you know of another student coming to the UA and you would both like to be roommates, you can request to be assigned to the same room.

Residence Hall Accommodations include, but are not limited to:

Please note that accommodations are only for your LIVING SPACE. Your residence hall room is not deemed your only location for studying, therefore requests for a single room based on studying issues will not be considered. Although there are a limited number of single rooms, any students can apply for a single through the general residence hall application process.

Accessible Bathroom and Room Features
Accessible community bathrooms and suite bathrooms have an accessible toilet, sink, and a roll-in shower equipped with a fold-down bench. We suggest that you bring a pad to use on the shower bench for cushioning if you need to take precautions with your skin. The bench does fold up if you prefer to bring your own shower chair. Suite bathrooms are generally shared between 4 students.

Other features of accessible rooms vary depending on the hall. Some rooms are equipped with remote automatic door openers. A room can be assigned as a single if you use personal care givers, but most accessible rooms are doubles. There are room choices on a variety of floors.

Single room / Private Bathroom
Single room and private bathroom options are varied and limited to students who require a private living space. If you are eligible for these accommodations, hall options will be discussed with you.
