Disability Support Services
Support services are offered to students with disabilities including, but not limited to, classroom and testing accommodations, adaptive equipment, assistance with the admissions process, career guidance and counseling, and referral to community service agencies. Students may apply for special services at any time but they are encouraged to apply as early in their program as possible. Appropriate documentation of disability is required.
