It is Northwestern University policy to ensure that no qualified student with a disability is denied the benefits of, excluded from participation in, or otherwise subjected to discrimination in any University program or activity. In response to a request made by a qualified student with a documented disability, the University will arrange, at no cost to the student, for the provision of academic accommodations and auxiliary aids determined by the University to be necessary to afford the student the opportunity for full participation in University programs.

It is important for a Northwestern University student who needs assistance with regard to any disability to notify Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) so the University can assist him or her in obtaining appropriate services. Students may call 847-467-5530 or TTY 847-467-5533 for further information. The SSD office, at 601 University Place, Evanston, serves both the Evanston and Chicago campuses.

Services for Students with Disabilities, a brochure describing various support services for students with disabilities, is available in University admissions offices and from the Services for Students with Disabilities office. There is also a brochure that includes maps of the Evanston and Chicago campuses indicating building access and parking locations. For more information, contact SSD.
