In conjunction with faculty, LSS is committed to providing “reasonable academic accommodations” for students with learning disabilities, ADHD, students on the Autism spectrum, and students with mental health conditions and chronic health conditions that rise to the level of disability. Once admitted, students may request support services in accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Our goal is to ensure that students with documented disabilities have an opportunity to grow independently to their full potential at Villanova.
Please refer to our guidelines for Students with Documented Disabilities to learn how to get academic accommodations.
ClockWork
Current students who need or are approved for accommodations should use ClockWork to register with LSS, request accommodation letters, and book tests. Professors can use ClockWork to view accommodation letters and approve test requests.
