The Office for Access and Disability Services (ADS) recognizes disability and disabled students as a source of innovation, empowerment and enrichment for the entire Villanova community.ÌýWe ensure that students with disabilities have equal access to University courses, services, facilities, programs and activities. ADS encourages students’ development of self-awareness, self-advocacy and independence as they prepare for the transition to the post-University experience.
ADS works alongside their flagship student organization, LEVEL, to promote disability awareness and inclusion; these varied experiences occur both within and outside of °ÄÃŶþ·Ö²Ê. By elevating the voice of disabled students, creating community and promoting a culture of mutual appreciation between the disabled and non-disabled communities, ADS is grounded in the University’s core values of Veritas, Unitas and Caritas.
