@Publisher I absolutely understand that and said as much in my post that it can generally be done with a doctor’s note. It is just that:

1. you just did not mention the critically important step of going through the approval process with the Office of Disabilities/ResLife in your post #16 so I read it as your suggesting the OP just run out and buy a portable a/c without any school approval.

2. at both of my kid’s colleges when an accommodation was given for an a/c the school would put in the unit and there was a charge for it (at some point each one of my kids had a roommate who got this accommodation – I don’t think it is hard to get). The accommodations at both of my kid’s schools did not allow a person to bring in his/her own a/c unit, even a portable one. Likely the school wants to manage how many BTUs each unit is.

3. With only a week left in the semester the likelihood of going through the process to get the a/c approved through the Office of Disability Services and ResLife in time to make a difference is almost nonexistent. However in my post I did suggest the OP get it for next year.
