Learning without barriers
A support system for 快播导航 students with academic resources and services to reduce barriers and ensure students' access to an equitable learning environment.
Students with documented disabilities are encouraged to contact SLDS early in their college planning. Services and resources are free and determined on an individual basis.
AIM
Accessible Information Management (or AIM for short) is Disability Services' online portal for students and instructors.
- Students new to Disability Services use AIM to submit their application for registration.
