Registering Service Animals
These instructions are for students who, due to a disability, require the use of a trained service animal. Visit this page for instructions on registering service animals in training.
The steps to register your service animal are:
- Complete the Disability Resource Center Request for Services Form and the Service Animal and Handler Registration Form.
- Return completed, signed forms to the DRC by using one of the following methods:
- Deliver to: Disability Resource Center in Clark Howell Hall
- Mail to:
Univeristy of Georgia
Disability Resource Center
Clark Howell Hall
Athens, GA 30602 - Fax to: (706) 542-7719
- Email to: dsinfo@uga.edu (emailed forms must include a signature)
- A DRC representative will contact you via phone or email to schedule a short meeting. At the meeting, you will meet your Disability Service Coordinator, receive a copy of the policy regarding service animals on campus, and receive a tag identifying your service animal as registered. You will also have an opportunity to discuss any questions you have about the registration process and having the service animal on campus.
- Instruct any alternates who will assist you with the service animal to complete the Designated Alternate Registration Form. The alternates will also be contacted to schedule a meeting. You can schedule a joint meeting by notifying the DRC scheduling representative that you wish to do so.
Please contact the DRC at 706-542-8719 with questions about completing the registration form.
