George Mason University maintains a separate, student-focused Disability Services department to provide students with equal access to university programs and activities.
Disability Services provides students with disabilities, including those with cognitive (e.g., learning, psychological, and closed head injury), sensory, mobility, and other physical impairments the assistance they need for a successful educational experience.
Accommodations may take many forms and generally apply to three categories:
- Teaching and learning
- Demonstrating knowledge
- Meeting academic requirements.
Disability Services collaborates with students with documented disabilities and with faculty to provide reasonable accommodations, auxiliary aids, and support services that are individualized and based on medical documentation, functional limitations, and a collaborative assessment of needs.
To learn more about student accommodations, go to the Office of Disability Services website or call 703-993-2474.
