Special Needs

---

 

Students with Disabilities are served by the Office of Specialized Services for Student with Disabilities at New Jersey City University.

 

The Office of Specialized Services (OSS) provides NJCU students with disabilities equal access to college programs. The OSS serves as a resource for students with mobility, vision, hearing, learning, and other disabilities that are in need of campus accommodations.

 

The OSS assists students, on an individual basis, in securing reasonable accommodations, including, but not limited to alternate testing arrangements, adaptive technology, and assistance in arranging other support services (e.g., sign language interpreters, books on tape, and note-taking support) supported by documentation.

 

It is the student's responsibility to self-identify and request services. Students requesting academic adjustments are required to submit appropriate and recent documentation of their disability. Students wishing to obtain accommodations may do so by contacting the OSS Director. Reasonable accommodations are then determined after consultation between the student and the Director.
