Disability-Related Accommodations

A reasonable accommodation is a change, modification, or adjustment to a policy, program, service, facility, or workplace that enables individuals with disabilities to participate and enjoy the same rights and privileges as others. We have included, below, a list of resources and contact information for applicants, faculty, staff, students, third-parties, patients, and visitors of the University who are seeking information regarding disability-related accommodations.

Workplace Accommodations

To request workplace accommodations, current employees of the Academic Division and UVA Health should refer to the Procedures for Employees with Disabilities to Request Workplace Accommodations.

EOCR also established the Disability Accommodation Fund to assist departments in covering the cost of providing reasonable workplace accommodations for employees.

Application and Interview Accommodations

To request a disability-related accommodation for the application or interview process, contact the ADA Coordinator at [email protected]

Academic Accommodations

Students seeking accommodations should contact the Student Disability Access Center. However, Law School students should refer to the Law School Disability Accommodation Policy.
