MyAccess Portal
Welcome Access Services students!
If you are a new student who has never requested accommodation services or connected with Access Services at Highline in the past, you will need to complete our Access Services intake and planning form.
If you are already receiving accommodations from Access Services, you should be able to log in to the MyAccess portal and request your accommodations.
If you would like to make any changes to your letter of accommodation, please contact Access Services.
Requesting Your Letter of Accommodation
Please remember to request your letter of accommodation (LOA) during the first week of each quarter.
- Log in to MyAccess using your Highline credentials (the same Highline username and password you use to log in to Canvas).
- If this is the first time you have logged in, you will be requested to sign the student responsibilities form. Please read it carefully. Important: Signing the form does not mean you have requested your letter yet.
- Click on “Add Requests for Classes” in the Accommodation Requests box.
- You will see your classes listed. Place a checkmark in the box next to any class(es) in which you would like to use your accommodations.
- Select “Continue to next step”.
- All approved accommodations are checked for all classes by default. If there is an accommodation you feel you do not need or want for a class you can uncheck the box for that accommodation and class.
- Read the accommodations agreement box carefully, then select “Submit Request”.
- That’s it! Your letter of accommodation (LOA) will be automatically generated and emailed to your instructor(s).
It is very important that you make contact with each instructor to make sure they received your LOA and to discuss how your accommodations will apply in their course.
