Classroom Changes for Physical Accessibility
The Office of Disability Services works with the Registrar's Office to coordinate classroom changes each semester to accommodate students with mobility limitations. These changes occur when a classroom is located in an inaccessible location or building and is then moved to an accessible location.
This accommodation is called, "Accessible Classroom,"and should be requested by students with mobility challenges that would need elevator access to all floors of a building.

Disability Services provides Accessible classroom and campus accommodations such as:
- Classroom moves for accessibility

When approved for this Accessible Classroomaccommodations you will work with one of our specialist to identify your needs on an individual basis. This accommodation also puts you on our Snow Route list that allows you to show us the routes you normally intend to take which we can then work with Facility Services to prioritize routes for snow removal that will work best for the majority of our student body that is approved for the Accessible Classroomaccommodation.
These changes usually take place a few weeks before classes begin. The Office of Disability Services encourages students to register for classes early.
