At my intake appointments at various schools, they just wanted to get to know me better, and how my disability affected me to know more about what accommodations I would be needing. It was more like an informal session to clarify what might need and talk with you further about that. The forms and documentation don't really help them get to know us, to best help us and support us, that is why many schools have these appointments. It is a good sign they do this. It shows they will tend to be more supportive than some other programs out there if you need help or run into problems down the road with your accommodations or professors.

You can always call ahead of time to ask if you need anything for the appointment and ask what you might expect during the appointment.

Wishing you well and hope you get the accommodations that you need.
