How to Apply for DSPS Services

New Students

If you are new to Los Medanos College and/or DSPS:

• complete a DSPS Application for Services
• provide Disbility Verification/Authorization to Release Information
• your documentation will be reviewed after it is received;
• if you are eligible, DSPS will call you to make an appointment with a DSPS specialist to discuss services and accommodations

Continuing Students

If you are a continuing student, you must meet with a DSPS counselor at least twice a semester to continue receiving services. If you want to request an additional service, schedule an appointment with a counselor.

Returning Students

If you are a student who has been away from Los Medanos College for a year or more, schedule an appointment with a DSPS specialist who will review your file. A new Student Educational Contract will be established if your documentation is current.

How to Schedule an Appointment

Call DSPS if you have questions about applying or to schedule a meeting with a DSPS specialist or counselor. Generally, the counselors and specialists do not schedule their own appointments, so please call the DSPS Administrative Assistant at (925) 439-2181 ext. 3133 or e-mail sbenzler@losmedanos.edu.
