The University of Oklahoma is committed to the goal of achieving equal educational opportunity and full participation for students with disabilities. Consistent with the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, The University of Oklahoma ensures that no “qualified individual with a disability” will be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or otherwise be subjected to discrimination solely on the basis of disability under any program or activity offered by The University of Oklahoma.
Accommodations on the basis of disability are available for OU Health Sciences students by contacting Student Accommodation Services.. Students requesting disability-related services or accommodations are required to submit appropriate documentation to substantiate the disability. SAS staff will review the documentation and send an e-mail to the student's university e-mail account that explains the eligibility determination. Students can expect to receive an initial response within fifteen (15) University business days of SAS receipt of the documentation. Students with disabilities will then schedule an appointment for an initial intake meeting with the SAS staff to discuss any history of accommodation, strengths and limitations, and review policies/procedures.
Information on policies and registration with Student Accommodation Services is available on the SAS website.
