Accessibility & Disability Services
Welcome to the ADSO!
The ADSO cultivates an accessible and inclusive community where students with permanent and temporary disabilities have an equal opportunity to participate in all aspects of campus life. We facilitate student learning and access through partnerships with students, faculty, and staff. Students are asked to notify the ADSO as soon as possible to discuss disability related needs. It is the student's responsibility to register and utilize the accommodations approved by the ADSO.
APPLY FOR SERVICES: Don't delay, register today!
Waiting until classes begin could result in significant delays.
Be PROACTIVE! If you have a question or need, contact Dr. Vides, Disability Coordinator today, before the term begins.
Students should apply for Fall 2025 accommodations before or during August 2025.
All students, regardless of sex, race, color, or national origin, who are interested in the program’s mission and focus are welcome.
Students with disabilities are held to the same academic standards as their peers.
Services Offered Virtually or "In-Person"
The ADSO is pleased to offer students with the option to meet either "in-person" or virtually; just state your preference of meeting type when you contact Dr. Vides.
