The Center for Accessible Education Team welcomes you back to UCLA for the Fall 2024 term! Check out a few updates below, including important information about new accommodation procedures.

Reminder: Schedule Your Fall Exams & Finals

As we are in the beginning of Fall Quarter, please be reminded that ALL CAE students requiring exam proctoring support will need to book their individual exams through CAE’s Student Portal (“Book a Test” link). For assistance, please utilize the following online tutorial (found below as well)

Please note we require 7-days notice to book your exams (midterms/quizzes).

Any booking attempts outside of this notice will NOT be accepted online and are not guaranteed to be accommodated as testing space is extremely limited. Once you receive your course syllabus, during Week 1, please proceed to booking your exams for ALL classes . 

In preparation for the extreme volume of Final Exam requests, the portal to book FINAL EXAMS will close on Saturday November 23rd (2-weeks prior to finals). Should you miss this deadline you may need to make alternative arrangements with your instructor or take your exam in the class setting.

Any questions regarding this exam booking process or testing accommodations should be directed to CAETesting@saonet.ucla.edu or our Testing Center Drop-In Hours (Mon-Thurs 12-1pm PST).

Please proceed now to book ALL EXAMS for the entire quarter for all of your courses that have testing dates. It is extremely vital to do so as soon as possible so we can properly plan to accommodate you.

If you have eligibiltiy for adaptive furniture placement in your classrooms due to your disability-related impacts, please remember to request your furniture ASAP!

Quick reminder that you receive your accommodations in your courses, you must release your accommodation letters through the Student Portal. Do so ASAP to take advantage of your accommodations early!

Get Technology Support

Did you know that CAE offers significant support to students exploring technology-based solutions for disability-related needs? Schedule a consultation with CAE's Assistive Technology Specialist to learn more about the tools available to you and what solutions will work best for your needs.

Reminder: Adjusted Deadline & Attendance Requests

The process for requesting a deadline extension or additional absences beyond the course attendance policy has changed!!!! Beginning WEEK ONE of the Fall Quarter, ALL students that require these types of accommodations will no longer need to request each individual deadline extension or additional absence through the standard CAE form. This form will be sunset as we introduce a new agreement form that your instructors will complete.

Once you release your letters, your Disability Specialist will connect with your instructor to set

up an agreement. Once your agreement is established with your instructor, your Specialist will

inform you of the parameters of the agreement. Generally, requests for adjusted attendance

support outside of the established agreement for the course will not be considered. If students

experience concerns or challenges related to requesting their adjusted deadline or attendance

accommodation, or having these accommodations fulfilled in the course according to the

established agreement for the course, they should reach out to their Disability Specialist or

email caeintake@saonet.ucla.edu.

For reference, students can view the agreements and information on the accommodations at each of these links. Students SHOULD NOT fill out these forms.

1. Adjusted Deadlines Accommodations
2. Adjusted Attendance Accommodations

Any additional questions regarding these accommodations or the new process for requesting

them in your courses should be directed to caeintake@saonet.ucla.edu.
