Navigating Cultural Cuisines on Campus Booklet

Request for Accommodations PROCEDURE GUIDE Meal Plans may be changed according to the Meal Plan Requirements through the 10th day of class each semester. To change your meal plan, please log into the Housing and Dining Self Service (My Housing Portal), select "Meal Plans," select "Current Semester," and click "Submit." In the event a student wishes to be released or receive a reduction from the meal plan due to a dietary need and/or religious dietary restriction, the following procedure is to be used. Step 1: Schedule a Religious Dietary Restriction Accommodations Session or Allergy/Medical Disability Accommodations Session with the on-campus Registered Dietitian to determine if dietary needs can be met. This type of session is for STUDENTS who are interested in pursuing (or learning more about) the process for meal plan and/or housing accommodations/adjustments. This meeting will be documented and used as a reference tool. Step 2: If, at the conclusion of this meeting, the Dietitian has concerns about the ability of the student to easily meet their dietary needs on-campus, then the student may apply for a meal plan exemption and/or housing adjustment. This process will require students to complete a Disability Housing Accommodations Request Form at https://cm.maxient.com/reportingform.php? LehighUniv&layout_id=122 (with appropriate medical documentation). Step 3: Exemption/accommodations request will be reviewed jointly by Disability Services, Residence Life, and Lehigh Dining Services, and other personnel who may be able to assist in accommodating your needs. A follow-up meeting may be scheduled to discuss specific needs and establish a plan. Student will be notified of outcome. An appeals process will be provided to the student. Documentation guidelines and deadline for submitting a Disability Housing Accommodations Request Form can be found on the Disability Support Services website at https://studentaffairs.lehigh.edu/content/disabilityhousing-accommodations.
