permanent disability should contact the Public Safety Office located on the ground floor of the parking garage on S. Main St. to make arrangements to obtain a parking permit for campus and university-owned parking lots. Students with a temporary disability should request assistance from the Director of Health Services in applying for a temporary parking permit through the Public Safety Office. Documentation of a learning disability is required for students requesting specific accommodations, and assessment must have been completed during the past two years by a psycho-educational specialist. Identification and documentation of a disabling condition is the sole responsibility of the students. If testing is completed off campus, the test results must be furnished to University College in Conyngham Hall. Once a student receives certification, an individual academic support plan will be developed. Once certified as eligible to receive accommodations, students must request specific accommodations at the start of each semester.
