Office of Accessibility Services

 

The Office of Accessibility Services (OAS) coordinates accommodation services and support to assist students with documented physical, learning, sensory, psychological, and developmental disabilities during their time at WPI.

Our office strives to foster an environment that supports and encourages self-advocacy, independence, and personal growth. OAS currently works directly with 800+ students throughout the year to support accommodation services covering all aspects of academic and campus life. OAS staff encourages an open and accessible campus community through programming focusing on physical access, universal course design, community awareness, and student peer-support and personal growth.

PEAK focuses on executive functioning skills such as academic planning, organization, and goal setting.
