Disability Services
Nova Southeastern University complies with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 by providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with a documented disability. At the postsecondary level, it is the student’s responsibility to initiate the process for disability services and to provide the University with proper documentation of a disability from a qualified physician or clinician who diagnoses disabilities and sets forth-recommended accommodations.
The University’s ADA Policies and Procedures, and the necessary forms for requesting disability-related accommodations, can be obtained by contacting the NSU Office of Student Disability Services at 954-262-7185 (toll free at 1-800-986-3223, ext. 27185), or through its website at http://www.nova.edu/disabilityservices.
To ensure that reasonable accommodations can be provided in a timely manner, all forms and documentation should be completed and on file in the NSU Office of Student Disability Services a minimum of four (4) weeks prior to the commencement of classes for any given semester.
