Steps to Register
Registration is on a voluntary, self-identifying basis with services and accommodations available after a student has applied in the OAE Online Portal, documentation (if available), and has completed an Access Meeting with an OAE team member to discuss eligibility for accommodations and services.
Step 1:
Your FIRST STEP is to log in to OAE Online Portal using your UMass Global credentials.
Step 2:
Next, complete an Application in the OAE Online Portal.
- Include any relevant health documentation, if available.
- If your condition is permanent, please select “permanent” within the application. If your condition is temporary, please select “temporary” within the application.
- MFT/PCC students ONLY: If you are requesting accommodations for an Advancement Exam, please select “yes” when asked within the application.

Step 3:
You will receive an email confirming your application has been received by OAE. OAE will follow up with you via email to schedule a Student Access Meeting to discuss accommodations, procedures, and services. The Access Meeting will be scheduled for 30-45 minutes.
Step 4:
