Office of Student Accessibility
Reynolds complies with both the letter and the spirit of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (ADA AA) and other laws protecting the rights of individuals with disabilities. The Office of Student Accessibility (OSA) seeks to provide access to educational opportunities for individuals with disabilities by removing barriers and providing programmatic and physical access to participate.
Students with documented disabilities may request reasonable accommodations through the OSA office. To be eligible for accommodation, students must comply with the institution’s established process. Reynolds does not exclude any otherwise qualified individuals, solely by reason of their disability, from participation in any programs or services offered by Reynolds.
Services and accommodations are provided to students with a variety of disabilities including and not limited to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders, blindness/low vision, deafness/hard of hearing, learning disabilities, mobility and chronic health, psychological disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and other impairments.
OSA staff encourages and assists students in their understanding of the nature of their disability and its impact on their learning and participation at Reynolds. Students are provided with opportunities to learn about their rights and responsibilities, procedures for requesting accommodations and about the wide range of programs and opportunities available at Reynolds and the surrounding community.
Students planning to request accommodations services from OSA are encouraged to contact the OSA at least four weeks from the start of the semester they plan to enroll.
