Housing

What are disability-related housing accommodations?

The Office of Disability and Accommodations can work with you to identify housing options to address your disability-specific needs. The definition of a disability is a condition that substantially impacts one or more major life functions (such as walking, breathing, learning, hearing, thinking, etc.). 

Examples of disability-related housing accommodations:

• A wheelchair accessible room
• A ground floor room, or a room near an elevator
• Access to a private bathroom or a low-use shared bathroom
• Strobe alarms in the room
• Air conditioning in the room
