UAlberta welcomes exchange applications from students having documented disabilities affecting mobility, vision, hearing, learning, and/or physical or mental health.

If you are a student with one or more documented disabilities and you would like to get academic accommodation during your exchange, then you will need to register with our Academic Success Centre (ASC) as soon as possible:

• Before registering with the ASC, you will need to have been informed by your home institution’s exchange office that your nomination for exchange to UAlberta has been accepted and you will need to have been issued a UAlberta Campus Computing ID (CCID) and a UAlberta Student ID number (getting the CCID and ID number might happen even before you discover that you have been accepted for the exchange).
• As part of the registration, be sure to identify yourself as an international student who is currently applying for an exchange experience at UAlberta.
• Personnel from the ASC will arrange an online conversation with you to assess the functional impact of your documented disability(ies).
• You may be asked to provide a description, in English, of the disability(ies) from a medical professional who is currently treating you.
• We encourage exchange students to utilize the academic accommodations that UAlberta can coordinate once your assessment is complete.

You may also wish to contact UAlberta’s Residence Services team (at housing@ualberta.ca) if your disability(ies) might impact your on-campus housing requirements.
