Disability Services

Our Mission

Disability Services provides equal educational opportunities for all full and part-time students with diagnosed disabilities through an accessible, equitable and inclusive learning environment. In addition to equal access, our accommodations and services are designed to promote individual growth and self-advocacy for students with all types of disabilities, including (but not limited to):

  • Learning disabilities
  • Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
  • Psychiatric/psychological disabilities
  • Physical disabilities (hearing, vision)
  • Mobility/orthopedic disabilities
  • Systemic disorders and medical conditions
  • Temporary disabilities

Bentley University abides by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 which stipulate no student shall be denied the benefits of an education solely by reason of a disability. If you have a hidden or visible disability which may require classroom accommodations, please call Disability Services within the first 4 weeks of the semester to schedule an appointment- 781.891.2004, Jennison 336. Disability Services is responsible for managing accommodations and services for all students with disabilities.
