Disability Services

十大彩票平台 adheres to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, and the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) of 2008 which states that "no qualified individual with a disability shall, solely on the basis of their disability, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or otherwise be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity in higher education."

十大彩票平台 is committed to the success of all students, and we strive to achieve equal educational opportunities to allow full access for students with disabilities. Our Office of Disability Services (ODS) provides accommodations, services, and auxiliary aids to students with disabilities.

Creating an optimal learning environment is a unique and collaborative process. ODS works closely with faculty to ensure that the academic integrity of each course remains intact while preserving equal access to course content and materials for qualified students at the same time.

ODS also strives to foster partnerships with faculty, staff, and students, promote disability awareness throughout the campus community, and provide guidance regarding college policies and procedures pertaining to the rights and privileges of persons with disabilities.

We look forward to helping you reach your academic and career goals!
