Georgetown University proudly supports the role of the Georgetown University Office of Institutional Diversity, Equity, and Affirmative Action (IDEAA) and does not discriminate or deny access to otherwise qualified students on the basis of disability. Depending on their documentation, students with disabilities may be eligible for reasonable accommodations and/or special services in accordance with the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

Students with disabilities are strongly encouraged to contact the Academic Resource Center (ARC) in the School of Continuing Studies, (located in Room C144, via email at arc@georgetown.edu, or by phone at (202) 784-7366) before the start of classes to allow the ARC enough time to review their documentation and to make recommendations for appropriate accommodations.

Please visit the ARC's documentation guidelines and accommodation process website for a step-by-step guide on requesting an accommodation.

If the ARC approves and recommends accommodations, it will provide the student with an official letter to share with instructors. Students are responsible for completing this process in a timely manner.

Neither accommodations nor exceptions to policies can be permitted to students who have not completed this process in advance. In some instances, recommended accommodations might not be allowable if doing so would modify course or degree requirements considered essential of the program. Should questions or related issues arise, the student and instructor should work directly with the ARC to find an appropriate resolution.

The following organizations can help students, faculty, and staff better understand disabilities and accommodations in higher education:

  • The Association on Higher Education and Disability
  • Children and Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder
  • National Association of the Deaf
  • National Center for Learning Disabilities
  • National Institute of Mental Health
  • The U.S. Department of Commerce's Office of Civil Rights
