LSU Shreveport is committed to making students with disabilities full participants in its programs, services, and activities through its compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 and the supplemental ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA). Accessibility Services works with both students with disabilities and the University in accomplishing this goal.
For more information regarding accommodations, see the Pilot Your Ability Student Manual.
The first step toward registering with Accessibility Services is to complete the New Students Accessibility Services Form.
Students will also be asked to provide supporting documentation from a qualified professional and participate in an intake meeting to discuss barriers to access and accommodation needs.
Eligibility and accommodations are determined based on a review of the information provided.
Students with approved accommodations do not need to reapply. Each semester, after registering for classes, request your approved accommodations for your current courses.
