Disability Services.
The Office of Disability Services is committed to assisting students with
disabilities in obtaining equal access and opportunity to all programs and
campus activities. The office coordiantes support services, provides education
for faculty and staff, and serves as an advocate for the student. It also
assists the student in developing independence and responsibility.
The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
guarantee persons with disabilities protection from discrimination based
on disability. These laws, as pertaining to post secondary education, protect
qualified students - those who meet all the academic and technical standards
of admission - in the areas of admissions, recruitment, academic requirements,
housing, financial need, and non-academic services.
Students accepted to Armstrong Atlantic State University who are requesting
accommodations should contact the Office of Disability Services. The student
must provide documentation of the disability from a qualified professional
and the documentation must support the need for the accommodation being
requested. The Board of Regents has established criteria in regards to documentation
of learning disabilities and attention deficit disorder. These criteria
are available in ODS.
Students who have a physical or mental impairment which substantially limits
one or more major life activities are eligible for services. Such impairments
would include (but are not limited to): mobility impairment, visual impairment,
hearing impairment, learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder, acquired
brain injury, psychological disorders, and medical disorders. Services offered,
based on the student's individual needs, may include: registration assistance,
orientation services, note taker services, interpreter services, reader
services, assistance in ordering taped textbooks, assistive listening devices,
referrals for diagnostic testing, detailed map of accessible routes on campus,
advocacy letters to faculty, and consultation with faculty and staff.
The Office of Disability Services is located on the 2nd floor of Memorial
College Center in the Division of Student Affairs. Office hours are 8:15am
to 5:00pm. Services are available at no cost. For more information, call
344-2582.
