Disability services at Pacific University are coordinated by the Office of Accessibility and Accommodations (OAA). You may visit our Getting Started page to get registered with our office or contact oaa@pacificu.edu for assistance.
OAA coordinates educational accommodations for students with a documented disability or condition that may limit their activities and/or academic achievements. Disabilities may be physical or learning related, and may be permanent or temporary.
OAA serves Pacific University students of all academic levels on all Pacific University campuses.
To help them succeed, Pacific University welcomes students to be forthcoming about their status and needs at any time. Visit our Getting Started page for more information.

For Students
Important: If your exam accommodations include an exam reader, scribe, or other testing accommodations that may require additional preparatory time, please note this in the request to OAA and your professor so that we are able to obtain the necessary items prior to your scheduled exam.
If you have a "memory aid" accommodation: Before each exam, make an appointment with your Professor to discuss what you believe your memory aid should look like and how they prefer to approve it for OAA. All memory aids must be pre-approved by your professor before OAA will allow their use during an assessment.
