Disability Support Services at Loyola College Diversity Statement At Loyola College, we welcome and support students with disabilities, and appreciate the diversity they bring to the College. Consistent with our core values and in support of our strategic plan, we provide appropriate and reasonable supports and modifications, so that students may fully participate in the life of the College.
Mission The mission of the Office of Disability Support Services (DSS) to provides services for students with disabilities which ensure access to all Loyola College programs and activities. The development, administration, and coordination of programs and services that help eliminate barriers of any type (e.g., physical, programmatic, attitudinal, or electronic) accomplish this goal.
Eligibility for Services Students must meet the academic standards set for admission into the College. Once admitted into Loyola a student is responsible for disclosing his or her disability to Disability Support Services in order to receive services. Recent documentation of the disability is required for a student requesting services. This confidential information is maintained in the DSS Office and not released without the student's signed consent.
