Once you complete the steps above, you will be scheduled to meet with a Disability Support Services counselor, who can assist you with arrangements for your classes, services and disability accommodations.
If you have any questions about your appointment, send an email to dss@deanza.edu or call 408.864.8753.
Current or Continuing Students
We are sending online registration packets to all continuing students. If you don’t receive one, please contact Michael Fosnaugh in the division office for Disability Support Programs and Services at De Anza College.
- Send an email to fosnaughmichael@deanza.edu or ape@deanza.edu
- Be sure to include your full name and your eight-digit De Anza student identification number, also known as a Campuswide ID or CWID
We will check to make sure you have a current Disability Verification form on file and then send you an electronic registration packet for students with disabilities.
The registration packet will include a DSS registration form for the upcoming quarter and a petition to repeat classes, along with instructions on how to complete these forms.
You will be able to complete these forms on your computer using Adobe Sign to sign electronically. (If you have taken APE courses before, you will need to complete both forms. You won’t be able to register for classes until your petition to repeat classes has been approved by the dean.)
Any questions? Please contact fosnaughmichael@deanza.edu or ape@deanza.edu.
