Heath Resource Center – Accommodations in College

In order to access accommodations in college/university - it is necessary for the student to register with the Office of Disability Services.  It is best to visit with the Office of Disability Services BEFORE a student makes a decision about a particular college/university.  Each university has different requirements to receive accommodations and students will need to know what is required BEFORE they start classes.
