The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits discrimination based on disability and requires the College to be physically and programmatically accessible. Beyond the basic requirements of the ADA, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and New York State and New York City statutes, the college has created an office, Services for Students with Disabilities (SSWD), that provides services to help each student with a disability maximize his or her potential for success. Based on an intake interview and documentation provided by a student, a variety of accommodations may be provided to help qualified students attain their academic objectives. Intake and counseling are provided in English and Spanish.

SSWD also educates and informs the college community about disabilities in general, encouraging and supporting the creation of a non-discriminatory learning environment, and serves as a resource to the community for disability-related matters.
