Academic Accommodations
The Accessibility Center provides reasonable accommodations for students with documented disabilities. We assure equal access to the academic environment and equal access to the academic challenge in the classroom. Our goal is to provide resources and opportunities for students to succeed despite the challenges posed by learning disabilities, physical challenges or mental health impairments.
Process:
Students who request accommodations for a disability must apply and register with the Accessibility Center before accommodations can be made. Students will be required to fill out the Accommodation Request Form and submit appropriate documentation.
