The DRC is available for consultation with any student or applicant. Students may also wish to first discuss their needs with GEMS program leadership, academic support professionals, or their own health professionals. It is important to note that students are never obligated to discuss their diagnosis or any medical details of their disability or treatment plan with faculty or staff of the GEMS Program.

- All UIC students are provided with access to the campus Disability Resource Center (DRC). The DRC is committed to providing all students with disabilities, whether they be physical, mental, or academic, the ability to seek out necessary accommodations so that they may be successful in their academic program.
- The GEMS program is committed in working closely with the student, DRC and COM administration to make certain approved accommodation needs are being met.
The DRC may require documentation in the process of determining and implementing reasonable accommodations. A non-comprehensive list of commonly approved accommodations is available on the DRC’s Guide to Accommodations website. Note that accommodation determinations are always made on a case-by-case basis and may differ according to the particular setting and its curricular requirements, or the functional limitations of an individual student’s disability. § Accommodation needs are best addressed proactively. Student performance outcomes cannot be revisited retroactively from the time that accommodations are requested or implemented.
