Holy Family University: Counseling Center Disability Services for Students

Disability Services for Students

The Disability Services Office facilitates reasonable accommodations for otherwise qualified students with documented disabilities. Commuter and resident students with disabilities (physical, learning, psychological, ADHD, etc.) who intend to seek campus accommodations and/or academic adjustments in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and/or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 should contact this office before the semester begins. New students should contact the Disability Services Office six to eight weeks before the start of their first semester at Holy Family University to submit documentation for requested accommodations and to review needs.  Late requests may delay the provision of some accommodations.

Information on guidelines for documentation, policies, and procedures is available through this office and is also located in the Counseling Center and Disability Services Resource Room in the Campus Center 205.  You may also complete the Student Information Intake Form and return this directly to our office to expedite your request for services or inquiry.  Requests for information can also be made through e-mail or the U.S. postal service.
