Wake Forest is an equal access institution that admits qualified applicants without regard to disability. When a student with a disability is admitted, the University seeks to accommodate those needs that are determined to be reasonable and that do not compromise the integrity of the curriculum.
The Center for Learning, Access, and Student Success (CLASS) provides study skills training and counseling. Students can learn to read critically, take notes effectively, manage their time, improve their motivation, increase their reading speed, and prepare for tests. Assistance is provided through counseling and individual and group tutoring. Students with a wide range of learning and other documented disabilities may also receive academic support, training, and advocacy through the Center for Learning, Access, and Student Success. Our hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 8:30am-5:00pm (excluding Holidays).
Students with a disability who require accommodations should submit a request and documentation to one of the individuals listed below, depending on the nature of the accommodation requested. The information a student provides will be treated confidentially and will be shared with other administrators or faculty members only to the extent necessary to reach decisions and take actions on requests for accommodations.
Please make an appointment at the Center for Learning, Access, and Student Success once you arrive on campus.
Additional information on disability services is available on the Center's website.
If an accommodation is granted, students are responsible for obtaining copies of the accommodation letter from the Center for Learning, Access, and Student Success and for delivering a copy of the letter to their professors at the beginning of each semester.
