The Profile tab of your Ventus Student Dashboard contains your personal and disability details.

To verify your personal and disability details…

  1. In the top menu, select Profile.
  2. Under the Personal Details and Disability Details headings, review your information to ensure accuracy. If you do discover inaccurate information:
    1. under 鈥淒isability Details鈥 (for disability information and documentation that you have already shared with the PMC), contact your Disabilities Coordinator with details of what is missing or inaccurate.
    2. under 鈥淧ersonal Details鈥, make any necessary changes through 杏吧原创 Central.

To add disability information and/or documentation…

  1. On the Profile tab, click the blue 鈥淎dd disability information鈥 button (on the right side of the screen opposite the Disability details heading).
  2. In the 鈥淎dd disability information鈥 dialog box, select the Disability type, accessing the list of disabilities by clicking the down arrow.
  3. Add details in the 鈥渄escribe your disability (optional)鈥 text field.
  4. In the 鈥淚s this condition permanent?鈥 field, click the down arrow for the Yes/No options.
  5. If you chose 鈥淣o鈥 to the question above and know how long the disability will last, enter the timeframe in the 鈥淓xpected duration of disability (if known)鈥 field. If you chose 鈥淵es鈥 to the question above, this field disappears.
  6. In the 鈥淒ocumentation鈥 field, click the down arrow for the options to attach documentation, fax it, mail it or drop it off. If you choose the 鈥渨ill attach file鈥 option, the 鈥淎dd attachment(s)鈥 upload functionality appears.
  7. Click the 鈥淏rowse鈥 button to find the documentation on your computer and then click the 鈥淥pen鈥 button.
  8. If there are multiple files, click the blue 鈥淎dd another file鈥 button to add each individual file. If you make a mistake and add the wrong file, you can click the yellow 鈥淩emove鈥 button to delete it and browse again.
  9. Click the green 鈥淎dd disability information鈥 button.
  10. Back on the profile page, verify that the disability and its supporting documentation has been added. It will be listed as 鈥渦nconfirmed鈥 until your coordinator receives and reviews the documentation. Note that if you had forgotten to upload supporting documentation, you can still add it afterwards by clicking the blue 鈥渁dd attachments鈥 button next to that listed disability.

Template Accommodations

Your template accommodations are the list of approved accommodations that are associated with your user profile and have been previously established in discussion with your PMC Coordinator.

When you log into Ventus for the first time, you should review the template accommodations available to you in each course to ensure that the accommodations you have used in the past (if you are a returning PMC student) or the accommodations that you established with your coordinator during your intake (for new PMC students) are available for you to select. Please note that unless included in your accommodations requests on a per course basis, template accommodations won鈥檛 be applied to your courses.

To review your template accommodations…

  1. Navigate to the Accommodations tab; the default view of your Course List will reflect the current term.
  2. Select each course that you are registered for and review the template accommodations available to you for each one.
  3. Make note of any inaccuracies (i.e. usual accommodations missing or other accommodations added which hadn’t been part of the template in the past) and contact your Disabilities Coordinator with details of what is missing or inaccurate.
