Applicants should complete, sign and submit the Emotional Support Animal Agreement.

Applicants should submit a completed Student Health Verification Form which provides a required mental health assessment from their clinician.

For dogs and cats, applicants must submit a completed Veterinary Health Form along with current and appropriate records (evidence) of their animal’s immunizations and vaccinations. Also, shot records must be updated as necessary and when applicable, the animal must wear a rabies vaccination tag. For animals that aren't required to have immunizations or vaccinations, applicants must submit a Veterinary Health Form completed by a licensed veterinarian. The form is required and provides documentation of their animal's “clean bill of health.”

Applicants must submit a recent picture of their animal.
