Emotional Support Animal Approval Process

A resident or future resident of USU Housing who wishes to request an accommodation to USU Housing's no pet policy, should submit the items listed below. Individuals who already have an ESA, or who have identified an ESA, may submit all the required information at one time. Those who have not already identified a particular ESA may want to receive approval for the accommodation before acquiring a particular animal. This may be done by completing items 1-3. Items listed under number 4 may be submitted after eligibility for the ESA accommodation has been determined.

The following must be done to request an ESA accommodation and to facilitate an approved ESA's access in USU Housing

1. Submit an ESA Application 
2. Provide the DRC with a signed copy of Housing's ESA Owner Responsibility Acknowledgment
3. Have your health care provider submit a completed copy of the ESA Health Care Provider Form (this form does not need to be used but documentation should contain the same information contained in this form).
4. Provide the DRC with a completed ESA Information Form, a picture of the ESA, and a picture of the cage, crate, or enclosure that will be used to house the animal when the owner is away from the residence.
