Services
The DRC offers a wide range of support services and accommodations for all undergraduate and
graduate students with disabilities. Appropriate services are determined and provided based upon
the student's specific disability and the academic requirements of the appropriate department, college,
school or program.
In order to ensure the timeliness of services, students should request their desired accommodations at least 4 weeks
prior to their actual need for the accommodation(s).
The DRC provides accommodations and services tailored to the individual need(s) of each student. When appropriate,
reasonable accommodations can include the following:
Housing and Parking Services
-
The university provides accessible accommodations for students with disabilities. Since
housing assignments are made on a space-available basis, early application is essential.

To obtain a university disabled parking permit, students must first get a disability placard
through the Nevada State Department of Motor Vehicles. A copy of the placard may then be taken
to the university Parking Services office. For more information, please call Parking Services: (775) 784-4654.
