Learning Support and Disability Services

The College of Idaho seeks to provide an educational environment that is accessible to the needs of students with disabilities.

The Office of Learning Support and Disability Services at The College of Idaho

• Seeks to ensure that all programs, services and facilities are accessible to students on a non-discriminatory basis
• Is committed to providing our students with disabilities the accommodations and support they need to have a rewarding and successful experience
• Fosters a campus culture of acceptance, inclusion, and positive attitudes that respects the diversity of our student body
• Reviews and maintains disability-related documentation
• Considers all disability disclosures confidential – they will never appear on a student’s college record or be shared beyond LSDS

The College provides reasonable services to enrolled students who have a documented permanent or temporary, physical, psychiatric, medical, learning, intellectual, or sensory disability that qualifies the student for accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act or section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

There are many types of accommodations available to support students’ education experience, such as academic, residential, dietary, temporary/concussion, or animal assistance accommodations.

Students should contact Natalie Davison, Director of Learning Support and Disability Services, to inquire more about services or to register a disability diagnosis with LSDS in order to receive accommodations.
