In keeping with its mission statement, Methodist University is
committed to giving students with disabilities equal access to an
education firmly grounded in the liberal arts tradition; to nurture
moral values and ethical decision making; to prepare students for
a variety of careers; and to provide educational and cultural services
and resources to the community.
The staff at the Center for Personal Development take seriously
their role in helping all students attain academic success at Methodist
University. Their goal is to help students with disabilities by
acting as advocates in the college community; encouraging independence
and responsibility through student self-advocacy; acting as a liaison
between students and the college community; and by securing reasonable
accommodations and/or modifications for classes for students with
the proper documentation.
Our staff works closely with the admissions office and we would
be happy to schedule a pre-admission conference to introduce both
parents and students to our services. We encourage all students
who may be using our services to register with the Disability Services
Office before the beginning of their first academic year. However,
students are welcome to discuss services at any time during their
college career.
As you read through our posted information please feel free to
contact us with your questions. You are encouraged to note suggested
dates for accommodation requests in the Documentation
and Access section.
