Learning Disabilities and Physical Challenges
North Georgia College & State University (NGCSU) is committed to the inclusion of individuals with disabilities and to the principle of individual rights and responsibilities. To that end, the policies and procedures of NGCSU reasonably ensure that a person with a disability is not on the basis of that disability denied full and equal access to and the enjoyment of academic programs and co-curricular activities or otherwise subjected to discrimination in such programs and activities. Students who believe they have experienced discrimination on the basis of a disability can seek resolution through grievance procedures established by NGCSU.
The policies for access by individuals with disabilities at NGCSU are designed to ensure full compliance with all pertinent federal and state legislation, specifically to include Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.
