Students With Disabilities

It is the policy and practice of Loyola to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, and state and local requirements regarding students with learning disabilities and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD). No qualified individual with a disability shall be denied access to, or participation in services, programs and activities at Loyola. Academic accommodations are provided for students with documented learning disabilities/ADHD so that these students are viewed according to their abilities, not disabilities.

Welcome to Disability and Accessibility Services (DAS)* at Loyola University Maryland!

Loyola University Maryland welcomes and supports students with disabilities. Loyola appreciates the diversity that students with disabilities bring to the University, which is consistent with our core values and support of our strategic plan. Disability and Accessibility Services is available to provide appropriate and reasonable supports and modifications so that students may fully participate in life at the University.

Disability and Accessibility Services' mission is to provide students with disabilities the equal opportunity to participate in all Loyola programs and activities, so students can learn, lead, and serve in a diverse and changing world. The DAS staff works to ensure students have equal access to Loyola programs and activities by eliminating barriers of any type (e.g., physical, programmatic, attitudinal, or electronic). Questions, comments, or concerns? Contact Disability and Accessibility Services.

*Disability and Accessibility Services was formerly known as Disability Support Services. The change was made based on current trends and student feedback as we transition to a new physical space. All operations of our office will continue as normal, and we look forward to continuing to work with you.
