American Sign Language Interpreting Services

The Office of Counseling and Student Accessibility Services provides sign language interpreters as an accommodation. ASL Interpreters are provided for academic purposes (in classroom and classroom related activities) to qualifying students registered with the department.

In order to apply for accommodations, students are encouraged to register for classes, complete the New Student Application and upload documentation.  Student’s will meet with a Counselor and reasonable accommodations will be determined.
