WHAT IS DISABILITY SERVICES?
Home » Student Services Services Learning » Introduction
The Office of Disability Services for students, located in the Academic Skills Center, in the Rigel Student Center, provides individualized support for students diagnosed with Specific Learning Disabilities or for those with Other Disabilities who meet 504 Guidelines. Students who have questions should contact Bob Santee, Director, at ext. 7612 on campus, 863-638-7612 off campus or e-mail him at disabilityservices@warner.edu.
Specific Learning Disabilities are those which meet Federal guidelines and have been confirmed by psychological testing. Most students who graduate from high school meeting the criteria would be eligible for assistance at Warner University. To receive accommodations students must provide appropriate documentation which reflects the current impact of the disability. We do not provide evaluations through our office, but can assist with referrals to an outside agency. Feel free to call our office if you currently or think you might, qualify for such services and support. Please click here to fill out the Disability Notification Form.
Other Disabilities fall under the 504 Guidelines of the Rehabilitation Act and cover those students who may have other types of disabilities that interfere with the educational progress. This may include, but is not limited to, such areas as ADD, ADHD, Visual or Hearing Impairments, other health impairments, or short term issues such as broken bones that may necessitate the use of a scribe for test taking or a short term parking sticker for designated parking. Documentation of the condition is necessary for students to receive service.
