Student Disability Services (SDS)
The Office of Student Disability Services provides information and individualized accommodations consistent with the student’s documented disability. Such accommodations may include, but are not limited to, assistance with classroom accommodations (including examination accommodations), assistance with course registration, and information and referral to campus and community services for students with disabilities.
To be eligible for disabilityrelated accommodations, students must have a documented disability as defined by applicable federal and state laws. Accommodations are available to students whose disabilities include, but are not limited to, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, deaf and hard-of-hearing, physical disability and/or health-related impairment, psychological and/or psychiatric disability, specific learning disability (such as dyslexia), speech impairment, visual impairment, or other disabilities requiring administrative or academic accommodations. Students seeking accommodations are required to provide recent documentation from an appropriate health care provider or professional.
If a student needs special admission consideration based on a disability, the student should answer this question on the Application for Admission form and send the requested appropriate documentation to the Undergraduate Admissions Office.
After admission to the university, students who have a disability that may require academic accommodations must contact Student Disability Services for an intake interview to be eligible to receive academic accommodations. The student will be required to provide disability documentation during the intake interview at Student Disability Services. All information is confidential and will be used only to assist the student. A Text Telephone (TTY)/Telecommunication Device for the Deaf (TDD) is available for deaf/hard-of-hearing or speech-impaired persons with TTYs/TDDs to contact Student Disability Services (TTY/TDD calls only phone 407 823 2116).
