Accessibility Accommodation Statement

Eastern Kentucky University strives to make all learning experiences as accessible as possible. Students registered with the Center for Student Accessibility (CSA) should request accommodation letters from the CSA office. The Center for Student Accessibility will email your academic adjustment letter to you, or you may stop by the office for a hard copy. You will provide your letter to the course instructor(s) immediately. We strongly recommend that you discuss the accommodations needed with your instructor(s). Students who need an accommodation for a documented medical, mental health, or learning difference may register online at accessibility.eku.edu/applying-services. If you have questions, you may email the CSA office at accessibility@eku.edu or telephone at (859) 622-2933. The Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) does not consider pregnancy a disability.​ Students needing accommodations due to pregnancy should contact EKU’s Office of Institutional Equity, Lindsey Carter, Director, Office of Institutional Equity, Title IX Coordinator, Jones 416, (859) 622-8020, Lindsey.Carter@eku.edu.
