Support Services for Students with Disabilities
General Support Services
It is our goal to assist all students with disabilities in the pursuit of their educational objectives; although concerns of a personal/medical nature are the primary responsibility of the student. The Office of Student Disability Services assists in coordinating campus and local community resources when requested. The purpose of these services is not to create a competitive advantage for students with disabilities but to eliminate any competitive disadvantages that may exist. Services are coordinated to enable students to act as independently as possible in a supportive environment that promotes self-reliance.
General Support Services may include but are not limited to:
- Individual, personal and educational counseling
- Liaison with local, state and federal support agencies
- Pre-admission counseling
- Early registration
- Classroom accommodations
- Loan of selected equipment
- Priority clearance of pathways during winter months
- Emergency evacuation planning
- Coordination of New York State Reader's Aid Funds
- Academic Support and Achievement Program
