Disability Services

Please contact our office to make an appointment.  In order to provide a reasonable academic accommodation/auxiliary aid, the student must provide documentation of the disability to Disability Services.  The documentation must be current, provide a clear diagnosis by the appropriate medical professional and specify the functional limitations related to the disorder.

The student must meet with Disability Services each semester and academic accommodations are decided through an interactive process.  As each semester brings new courses students seeking accommodations would meet with Disability Services, at that point, a decision of appropriate academic accommodations is made specific to each course. 

For faculty or staff planning events at Salem State University, please include the following statement on all flyers and electronic communications.  

To request an accommodation for this event, please contact disability services at 978.542.6217 or email access@salemstate.edu.
