FAU is committed to making the University facilities and services accessible to students with disabilities. Auxiliary aids and human support services are available to help meet the needs of students with varying disabilities. The official university authorization for academic accommodations is by the Boca Raton Campus office with actual accommodations administered on the MacArthur Campus. Adaptive services promote opportunities for full participation in university academics, programs, activities and services by students with disabilities through the provision of reasonable accommodations and other support services. Disabilities, as outlined by the Americans with Disabilities Act and the University, may include learning, visual, hearing, speech, physical, psychological and other disabilities. The student is responsible for identifying himself or herself as having a disability, providing documentation, and consulting with Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD) staff with sufficient notice to coordinate appropriate services. OSD staff provides consultation and assistance in enrollment and registration, classroom accommodation, note-taking and reader services, modified or extended test taking and sign language interpreters.
