Housing Accommodations
The mission of the Center for Success is to collaborate with and empower students who have disabilities in order to coordinate support services and programs that enable equal access to an education and university life. The staff strives to create and sustain a welcoming, accessible, and supportive environment to promote academic independence and success of all students with disabilities.
In accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Fair Housing Act, and/or other applicable regulations, Franciscan University endeavors to offer reasonable accommodations to students who have a disability. However, since a degree in a particular academic area connotes the possession of certain intellectual skills, the University does not reduce or waive course requirements for individual students.
Students with a disability requiring accommodations are responsible for notifying the Center for Success. To determine eligibility for services, a student must provide current and complete documentation of a specific disability that substantially impacts or limits one or more major life activities. Documentation should be presented as soon as possible following acceptance in order to evaluate individual needs. Please contact the Center for Success at 740-284-5263 if you have questions about services or to schedule an appointment.
