Services Offered:

Accessibility Accommodation Service (AAS) provides confidential services to those students who, here at Grambling State University, must request and provide the necessary documentation to verify a special needs request.  Diagnostic educational evaluations/examinations are not conducted through AAS here at Grambling State University.

Academic accommodations are made on the basis of student's documented disabilities.  Possible accommodations include but are not limited to large print handouts, extended time for completion of tests/examinations, academic counseling, and audio taping.  All documentation submitted is confidential and does not become a part of the student's university file.  Files are not released without the student's written consent.

If the student needs, or expects to need, an accommodation not supported by their documentation, the student should discuss further evaluation with a diagnostician.

Information explaining the required documentation for various disabilities can be found by clicking on each of the following links:
