Accessibility Services

The Accessibility Services Center (ASC) collaborates with students, administrators, faculty, and staff to ensure access to reasonable and appropriate student disability accommodations. ASC strives to create a fully accessible, inclusive experience for student learning, campus engagement, and residential life.

Student Accommodations

Through an interactive process and collaboration, ASC provides individualized services to students with disabilities to establish appropriate accommodations to create equal access. ASC encourages students to become responsible decision makers, problem-solvers, and self-advocates who request and access their accommodations.

Requesting Accommodations

Once you are admitted to UNO, requesting accommodations steps is initiated through the ASC Online Portal. Students fill out an application and upload supporting disability documentation to begin the process. Following this, an interactive discussion with an ASC Specialist is scheduled to complete the accommodation process.

Learn more about requesting accommodations and accessing the online portal on the Accessibility Services Center website. If you are not sure if you qualify for support services, do not hesitate to contact ASC at 402.554.2872 or stop by the ASC in HK 104.

Request for Reasonable Accommodation in Field Placements

The University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) supports students with disabilities and encourages their full participation in all academic programs, including field placements of all kinds. "Field placements" for the purpose of this document include any practicum, field experience, clinical practice, internship, training, clinic, or work experiences (or similar) conducted for academic credit. In accordance with Section II of the Americans Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, UNO's Accessibility Services Center is the designated office to work with students with disabilities to provide reasonable accommodation so they may enjoy the same benefits, experiences, and opportunities as persons without disabilities.
