Accessible Educational Services (AES)
IU Columbus is committed to helping students with disabilities achieve their goals by augmenting their existing strengths and abilities. Accessible Educational Services (AES) provides a range of services based on the documented needs of qualified students with disabilities that meet the requirements of the American Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
AES facilitates tests that require extended time, provides interpreters, coordinates financial support and service through Indiana Vocational Rehabilitation, assists in registration, provides note takers, works with faculty to make reasonable modifications of programs and courses for students with disabilities, upholds academic standards, and maintains legally appropriate confidentiality for students with disabilities.
Students are encouraged to contact the AES office several weeks before the start of each semester to ensure services are in place.
