ETS is committed to serving test takers with disabilities and health-related needs by providing services and reasonable accommodations that are appropriate, given the purpose of the test. Testing accommodations are available for test takers who meet ETS requirements.
Applying for Accommodations
The Bulletin Supplement for Test Takers with Disabilities or Health-related Needs contains procedures and forms for requesting testing accommodations. The Supplement should be used in conjunction with the information and registration form(s) in the GRE? Information Bulletin.
Note: All test takers requesting any accommodations must submit their requests and have their accommodations approved by ETS Disability Services before their test can be scheduled. Your request should be submitted as early as possible, especially if you are requesting an alternate test format. Documentation review takes approximately six weeks once your request and complete paperwork have been received. If additional documentation must be submitted, it can be another six weeks from the time the new documentation is received until the review is complete.
Once you have been approved, ETS will send you an email providing instructions for registering for the GRE? test. Please wait for your approval email before registering to test.
If you have a disability or health-related needs that require you to bring equipment, beverages or snacks into the testing room or to take extra or extended breaks, you must follow the accommodations request procedures in the Bulletin Supplement for Test Takers with Disabilities or Health-related Needs.
To submit a request, send all completed forms and documentation via one of the following methods:
