The University of West Florida (UWF) is committed to fostering an inclusive campus environment where individuals with disabilities have full access to educational opportunities. This policy outlines a clear and equitable process for providing academic accommodations to participants in Continuing Education programs, ensuring compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, and the university’s dedication to accessibility and equal opportunity. Student Accessibility Resources (SAR) will serve as the primary resource for assessing and determining reasonable accommodations for non-University students enrolled in Continuing Education programs.
To receive accommodations, follow these steps:
- Complete the Continuing Education Accommodation Request Form.
- Provide supporting medical documentation from a licensed or certified professional with expertise in your specific disability.
- Schedule a meeting with Student Accessibility Resources (SAR) for an interactive discussion about your accommodation needs.
Student Accessibility Resources collaborates with the Continuing Education Department to ensure reasonable accommodations are provided. To allow sufficient time for processing, students should submit accommodation requests as early as possible.
For questions or to check the status of your request, please contact Student Accessibility Resources at 850.474.2387.
