Accessibility Resources

Stony Brook University provides a number of disability resources and accommodations to help students of all abilities thrive in graduate school.

If you require accommodation, please report your need to the appropriate office. We recommend registering with campus offices during your first semester in order to protect your right to accommodation and ensure your success. Differences do not always mean there is something wrong with you, it means the environment was made for typical/average and you simply are not typical/average. 


If you are unsure if you qualify for student accommodations, please review the list of disabilities with legal entitlements outlined in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

  • For classroom support please visit the Student Accessibility Support Center (SASC) website for student FAQ, how to register. and for more accessibility resources that cover parking, inclement weather, and transportation.
