Accommodation Resources
The University is required to provide reasonable accommodations for students, staff, and faculty related to disability, pregnancy or related conditions, religion, and creed.
The Office of Equity (OE) is not responsible for coordinating accommodations for students, staff, and faculty related to disability, but we will connect you with the appropriate office to assist you in that process. For students in need of accommodations related to pregnancy, religion, or creed, you may contact the OE for more information or support.
