Student Accessibility Services
The mission of Student Accessibility Services (SAS) is to provide equal opportunities and equal access to education, programs, and activities for all students with disabilities at Delaware State University. SAS works collaboratively with University Partners to foster a welcoming, diverse, and inclusive University community.
In achieving this, SAS collaborates with and empowers individuals who have documented disabilities by working together proactively to determine reasonable and appropriate accommodative measures. In efforts to ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) and other current legislation and to eliminate attitudinal barriers against people with disabilities, SAS also provides institution-wide advisement, consultation, and training on disability-related topics, including legal and regulatory compliance, universal design, and disability scholarship.
Student Resources and Registration
Students with disabilities interested in requesting disability-related accommodations at Delaware State University must provide appropriate documentation and engage in the interactive process with SAS. Any student already registered with SAS who has questions about accommodations and resources should contact SAS early and often.
Faculty and Administrator Resources
Faculty and Administrators are some of our most important allies in ensuring that all students with disabilities are given the opportunity to request accommodations and experience equal access to all aspects of the educational experience here at Delaware State University. SAS offers tailored resources and training for Faculty and Administrators.
Parent and Family Resources
Delaware State University is committed to fostering an environment of nondiscrimination including but not limited to the recruitment, admission, and treatment of students with disabilities. We understand that you as parents may be accustomed to playing a role in your student’s education and have compiled a list of resources to assist you in the transition.
