Roseman University of Health Sciences complies with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Roseman University of Health Sciences and its Student Services Office will not discriminate and/or retaliate against any person because of their disability. Discrimination of and/or retaliation against persons with qualified disabilities is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and will not be tolerated. Effective action, including disciplinary action where appropriate, will be taken should proven violations of either of these Acts occur.

Faculty, Staff, Administrator Process

Should a faculty member, staff, or administrator be made aware of a student requesting academic accommodations due to a disability, that faculty member or administrator should immediately refer the student to the Student Services Office so that the student may be informed of policies and processes necessary to grant accommodations.

Student Accommodation Request Process

Students requiring accommodations must first contact the Student Services Office. In order to provide accommodations in a timely manner, the student should notify the Student Services Office as soon as possible, preferably before the start of the academic year so that any necessary documentation may be submitted. The Student Services Office will talk to the student about documentation during the initial conversation.  No student should delay meeting with the Student Services Office out of concern for not having appropriate paperwork.  There is no paperwork which the student needs to obtain from Student Services rather just provide the documentation as outlined in the following form.
