Augusta University believes academically qualified individuals with disabilities should
have equal opportunity and access to a quality education.
We have been actively involved in fostering an environment that encourages full participation by students with disabilities in every segment of the University.
We were established to help ensure an accessible and positive college experience for the students with disabilities. Our Office provides a variety of services and accommodations to meet the needs of disability related concerns in accordance with the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.
All students are considered for admission to the University under the same criteria. Our office does not determine the acceptance of students to Augusta University. At the time you are accepted to the university, we encourage you to contact the Office of Disability Services. Visit the Admissions page for more information.
