Student Life Disability Services

Visit the registration page to get started.

Please note:

• Students who originally registered with Disability Services at a regional campus prior to May 13, 2020 will need to also register with the Columbus office when taking Columbus-based classes.
• Students who registered with a regional campus on or after May 13, 2020 do not need to register at Columbus. Instead, please contact SLDS. We can update your assigned Access Specialist in AIM and review with you how to request accommodations for your Columbus courses (e.g. how to schedule exams).

No. It is your choice as to whether you want to use your accommodations and how often you want to use them. However, if want to use your accommodations, you need to tell your instructors and SLDS this so that arrangements for your accommodations can be made. You are never under any obligation to disclose the exact nature of your disability to anyone on campus, but you will need to tell faculty about your classrooms needs so that they can assist you.

No. Not unless you choose to tell people. Your disability documentation and information will be kept confidential and will be stored in the SLDS office.

No. You will receive the same Ohio State diploma as everyone else. There will be no indication on your diploma that you sought help through SLDS. In college, you will be held to the same policies, procedures, and requirements as everyone else even if you work with SLDS.
