Disability Policy Statement

 

Policy Statement Regarding Students and Applicants with Disabilities

It is the policy and practice of Southern University Law Center (SULC) to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, and state and local requirements regarding students and applicants with disabilities. Under these laws, no qualified individual with a disability shall be denied access to or participation in services, programs and activities of Southern University Law Center.

 

A. General Statement

SULC's policy regarding students and applicants with disabilities recognizes that disabilities include mobility, sensory, health, psychological, and learning disabilities. SULC will make every effort to provide reasonable accommodations to these disabilities to the extent that such accommodations are readily achievable.  SULC is unable to make accommodations that are unduly burdensome or that fundamentally alter the nature or fundamental curricular components of the program. While SULC's legal obligation relates to disabilities of a substantial and long term nature, it is also our practice to provide accommodations when possible for temporary disabilities such as a broken leg or for pregnancy.
