Requesting Services

The Disability Support Services office provides a broad range of services to make academic life as smooth as possible for students with disabilities. Since the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 guarantee equal access, not success, individual success is up to each student. We encourage students to develop self-advocacy, empowerment, responsibility, independence, personal growth, and develop and use compensatory skills.

Students should request services via the following steps:

Call DSS services at 824-6203 and schedule an appointment
Download the application for DSS services, complete it and bring it with you to your scheduled meeting.
Collect all previous paperwork (testing, assessment, medical records, letters from physicians) that documents your disability and how it impacts your education. Bring this to your meeting as well.
Arrive at meeting with all paperwork.
