Disability Support Services at the University of Alabama at Birmingham provides an accessible university experience through collaboration with UAB partners. These partnerships create a campus where individuals with disabilities have equal access to programs, activities, and opportunities by identifying and removing barriers, providing individualized services, and facilitating accommodations. DSS serves as the university-appointed oce charged with providing institution-wide advisement, consultation, and training on disability-related topics which include legal and regulatory compliance, universal design, and disability scholarship. Sometimes students with food allergies and dietary restrictions require accommodations in their residence hall. Accommodations could include access to a personal refrigerator, private bedroom, or a nut free living space. Accommodation requests are received by Disability Support Services. The process to register for accommodations is 1) complete the DSS online application, 2) submit documentation of your disability to DSS, 3) attend an accommodation planning meeting, 4) and complete an accommodation orientation.

You can always access more information about DSS by going to uab.edu/dss.
