Access to Students with Disabilities
Athabasca University makes every attempt to accommodate
students who have
permanent or temporary disabilities whether the disability arose
before
or after admission to the University.
Students indicate on the Undergraduate General Application Form,
whether they have a physical, medical, learning, or
medical disability that may affect their
academic progress. If you are a prospective student with a disability,
contact the Office of the Registrar and a Verification
of Limitation Form will be sent to you.
If, after admission, circumstances arise that qualify you to receive
special services, contact the Coordinator, Access to Students with
Disabilities, to
discuss
your situation.
Students with disabilities who require alternate format exams or
specialized accommodations will be advised and requested to book
examinations 30 business
days in advance to facilitate the additional preparation time. In rare
circumstances the time limits identified may be extended for specific
exams.
