Visitor requests for accommodations are reviewed on a case-by-case basis and some accommodation requests may take more time than others to be fulfilled.

See Requesting Accommodations as a Visitor to Campus for specific contact information.

Do I need to alert Humboldt if I plan to bring my service dog to campus during my visit?
While visitors are not required to notify Humboldt in advance of their need to bring a service dog to campus, it is recommended. Humboldt welcomes visitors with service dogs to campus if the dog has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability. Visitors are encouraged to have their service animal wear a badge and/or vest that identifies them as a service dog while visiting campus. Handlers may be asked to remove their dog if the dog exhibits vicious behavior, causes excessive disruptions, is not housebroken, is not sufficiently cleaned, or groomed, and is not being properly restrained by the handler. Requests to bring animals other than service dogs to campus will be considered on a case-by-case basis. See the Animals on Campus Policy for more information.
