SAAS Information

Online access to accommodations and services

Students registered with the Disability Resources and Educational Services office have access to the Web-based Student Access and Accommodation System (SAAS). SAAS is used to manage the alternative testing process and to request academic accommodations, support services, and alternative testing. Log in to SAAS here.

DRES and NCOD students with the approved accommodation of "Shared Notes" use the Student Access and Accommodation System (SAAS) to recruit and manage their notetakers online. Please visit our Accommodation Procedures site, under “Shared Notes” for more information.

If you have problems accessing SAAS, the issue may be your Web browser. Make sure you’re using the latest version of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari or Google Chrome.

Managing Your Exams in SAAS

  • The schedule for Spring 2024 Final Exam Week is Saturday, May 11, 2024 to Friday, May 17, 2024.
  • The Final Exam Scheduling Deadline is Monday, April 29, 2024, by 5pm.

Please contact your instructor as soon as possible to communicate how you will use your testing accommodation(s) and to confirm how your testing accommodations will be provided. Your accommodation(s) may be provided in the following ways:

  • For fully online courses (FOA, FOS, FOI), your instructor will provide your testing accommodations for exams (quizzes, midterms, and final) online.
  • For on-campus courses (COA, COS, COI, OH), your instructor or DRES will proctor the exams.

If taking exams at DRES, you are responsible for managing your alternative testing exam schedules such as requesting exams or cancellations.

Please submit exam requests at least 5 days in advance for regular exams and 10 days for final exams (How to Video).

Note: You and your course instructor may contact the DRES office at any time for assistance by calling (818) 677-2684 or via email dres@csun.edu.
