For Students with Disabilities

Welcome to the Disability Services Office (DSO). We're here to help.

  • If you have a legally documented disability we will help you with access and appropriate accommodations.
  • If you are currently a student at OCC and there is a suspected disability, you may be screened through our office and then be referred for an outside evaluation.
