Disability Services works
to ensure that reasonable and effective accommodations and support services
are in place for students with documented physical, auditory, vision,
and/or chronic disabilities. In order to identify the accommodations and
determine the appropriate and available resources for these accommodations,
students are strongly urged to meet with a consumer manager during the
application process.
Advocacy, counseling, and support are provided at all
levels of academic and administrative programs and services, including
but not limited to: admissions, orientation, housing, transit, enrollment
management, class/lab assistants, notetaking, communication, campus access,
adaptive equipment, advising, and other non-personal areas.
Consumer managers are skilled in the field of disability services at the post-secondary level,
as well as being highly knowledgeable in disability issues, laws, and
resources, and are available to meet with prospective and interested students,
parents and/or guidance counselors.
