- Self advocacy
- Specific disability related concerns
How to Access Disability Services
- Step 1: Contact our staff for an appointment (preferably before the start of classes).
- Step 2: Provide documentation to our office from a qualified professional. If you need assistance with this, please let us know.
- Step 3: Meet with Disability Services staff to develop a specialized plan (VISA form) that you will provide to your instructors regarding academic adjustments for their classes.

What is "Documented" Disability
- Written verification from a medical or psychological specialist that is recent - meaning within the last 3-5 years.
- Documentation should clearly state both the disability and how it significantly impacts the student, especially in a learning environment.
- For more specific information on documentation, please refer to our website or contact a staff member.
