The student who intends to apply for the Status of Student with Specific Educational Needs (ENEE) must follow the following procedures:

1. Submit the request through the Connect platform, requiring the submission of documentary evidence (clinical report, medical certificate and/or other duly authenticated document, i.e., with the identification of the competent professional, their signature, stamp/sticker, and/or seal) that attests to their condition and its consequences on their academic performance.

The instructions for requesting the Status can be found in the following document: Instructions for request ENEE Status  (PDF, 551KB)

2. After submitting the request on Connect, and if the situation is eligible, you will be contacted by the NDA team to schedule a meeting, with the objective of defining the support measures that will be associated with the Status. This meeting is mandatory in order to proceed with the attribution of the Status.

Note: The request can be made at any time and, if the Status is authorized, its validity may be permanent or temporary.

This process is managed with complete confidentiality: clinical documentation and all information provided by the student are not accessible to third parties nor disclosed to the faculty of the Curricular Units. This status is not recorded in the student’s final course documentation (diploma or certificate). The status serves only to formalize the support they need and are entitled to.
