The Accessibility Services Center (ASC) collaborates with students, administrators, faculty, and staff to ensure that we provide reasonable and appropriate accommodations for our students with disabilities. Our office provides a full range of campus supports services to ensure the success of our students.

  • ACS helps accomodate students who need accomodations made for their classroom environment, during tests or even just on campus as far as taking part in different activities or being a part of different organizations on campus.

  • The center also reaches out to faculty and staff to help train and teach them how to work with students who may need accessibility services.

  • ACS continues to hire new staff members to help meet the needs of incoming students who need accessibility services as well as the students already on campus who are checked on regularly to make sure their needs are being met as well.
