GW provides reasonable and appropriate academic accommodations to students with disabilities. Reasonable accommodations are adjustments to policy, practice, and programs that provide equal access to GW's academic programs. Once affiliated with DSS, students are paired with an Accessibility Associate who will engage in an interactive process to determine disability-related needs while studying at GW. DSS works with each student to ensure equitable access to their academic program while maintaining program standards and requirements.

  

   Registration Process

Start your journey with DSS by submitting an application and meeting with an Accessibility Associate to discuss your accommodations.

   Additional Accommodations

   Disability Documentation
