Eligibility for Services
Students who seek support services must be registered Kean University students. They are required to self-disclose their disability and submit current documentation to verify eligibility as defined under applicable law. To meet this requirement, documentation must be dated within the last two years, and address the present need for accommodations. School plans, such as Individual Educational Plans (IEPs) and 504 Plans, are insufficient documentation, but may be considered when determining services. Previous high school accommodations may not be appropriate or available on the college level.
How To Apply
When applying for services, students should call (908) 737-4910 or visit Downs Hall, room 127 to make an appointment for intake registration. The Office is open Monday through Friday 8:30 AM to 5 PM. Kean University students at our Ocean County site should contact Jim Rodgers at (732) 255-0400 ext. 2440. The following documents must be presented at intake:
- Current class schedule
- Medical documentation
- IEP, 504 Plan, or documentation of past accommodations.
* Note: Requests for sign language interpreters, readers and note-takers require a minimum of 15 days notice to appropriately meet a student’s needs.
