Office of Services to Students with Disabilities
Services to Students with Disabilities (SSWD) offers a wide range of support services and accommodations to students in order to ensure students with disabilities equal access and opportunity to pursue their educational goals.
Services and accommodations are provided to students with visual, hearing, mobility impairments, specific learning disabilities, psychiatric disorders, and/or other types of disabilities. Students must submit medical or professional documentation prior to meeting with a counselor for a needs assessment and accommodation plan. Please see details in SSWD Application Process and Forms.
Working collaboratively with students, faculty, staff and administrators, SSWD provides consultation and serves as the information resource on disability related issues to the campus community.
