Supporting your Learning
The Accessible Learning Centre facilitates equitable learning supports in the university environment for students with a wide range of documented disabilities.
Students with Disabilities Grant funding, through Alberta Ministry of Advanced Education, enhances our university's capacity to provide timely services, supports, and accommodations for students with disabilities seeking assistance so that they may seamlessly and successfully fully participate in their programs of study.
The Accessible Learning Centre has sourced and created a variety of Learning Resources that have been made accessible to all students.

The Accessible Learning Centre offers a range of services to accommodate our students with their learning needs. Many service costs can be covered by government grants depending on eligibility.
In order to apply for funded supports, you must first complete your Alberta Student Aid application, then make an appointment to meet with the ALC team to discuss your eligibility (based on documentation strength and recommendations), and fill out a Schedule 4.
*** Please note:
Grant applications currently take up to eight weeks to process and approve. This is an Alberta Student Aid timeline that is not under our control. We recommend you consider this when making requests and plan accordingly.
-
Student Aid applications are a requirement to determine eligibility; those who do not qualify are still afforded other opportunities for support.
