Students may qualify for DSP&S services by one of two ways:
1) students may complete the assessment for eligibility
into the learning disabilities program or 2) provide verification
of their disability to the DSP&S office.
The DSP&S staff must review all verification before a
student is accepted into the program.
Philosophy: To create an environment where
students may realize their potential. DSP&S believes in maintaining
academic integrity, and encourages realistic choices for academic
and vocational goals.
Purpose: To
provide support services that recognizes the worth and value of
students with disabilities and encourages students to become
functioning, productive, and contributing members of our society.
