Assistance (Emotional Support) Animals
What are assistance or emotional support animals?
An assistance animal is any animal that provides emotional support that alleviates one or more identified symptoms or effects of a person’s disability. An assistance animal does not necessarily need to be trained and is not necessarily limited to any specific type of animal. An assistance animal is restricted to the residence of the individual, and may not accompany the resident to other areas of the university without an accommodation from SAS.
