The Accessibility Resources Office (ARO), works with a diverse population of students with documented disabilities to ensure equal educational access.

We seek to collaborate with all components of the University community to increase awareness, remove barriers, and promote an inclusive environment where students are empowered to be successful learners, self-advocates, and citizen leaders.

We strive to create a universally inclusive campus through innovative and individualized practices that foster independent and confident students, informed and engaged faculty, and create a collaborative and welcoming campus community for all.
