We pride ourselves in giving individualized consideration of each student鈥檚 abilities, the functional impact of their disability, and program standards in order to devise creative and innovative accommodation solutions to ensure equitable access to students with disabilities.</p> <p>Being a graduate and professional school institution, there are some unique aspects of the educational experience at UCSF that may be different from your undergraduate experience. These aspects are worth discussing with Student Disability Services (SDS) as you consider what accommodations you might need, and what transition plan you may want to put in place to prepare for academic and clinical experiences at UCSF.</p> <h3>SDS Mission</h3> <p>Student Disability Services (SDS) serves, supports, and empowers UCSF students with disabilities by ensuring equitable access to fully and holistically participate in all areas of the university experience.</p> <h2>Additional Information</h2> <p><strong>Contacts for questions and additional info:</strong></p> <p>Timothy Montgomery, Co-Director (<a href="mailto:Timothy.montgomery@ucsf.edu">timothy.montgomery@ucsf.edu</a>)</p> <p>Clayton Littrell, Co-Director (<a href="mailto:clayton.littrell@ucsf.edu">clayton.littrell@ucsf.edu</a>)</p></div> </main> </div>  <div id="col-nav"> <aside id="sidebar"> <div class="sidebar-item"> <h2 id="edition" class="sidebar-header"><a href="/">2024-2025 Edition</a></h2> <nav id="cl-menu" aria-label="Primary"> <ul class="nav levelzero" id="/"> <li><a href="/welcome/">Welcome from the Chancellor</a></li> <li class="isparent"><a href="/schools/">Schools and Programs</a></li> <li class="isparent"><a href="/programs/">Academic Programs</a></li> <li class="isparent"><a href="/residency-fellowship/">Residency and Fellowship Programs</a></li> <li class="active isparent"><a href="/university/">University Support Offices</a> <ul class="nav levelone" id="/university/"> <li><a href="/university/basic-needs/">Basic Needs for Students</a></li> <li><a href="/university/campus-life-services/">Campus Life Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/first-generation-support-services/">First Generation Support Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/graduate-professional-student-association/">Graduate and Professional Student Association</a></li> <li><a href="/university/guardian-scholars-program/">Guardian Scholars Program</a></li> <li><a href="/university/housing/">Housing Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/initiative-maximize-student-development/">Initiative to Maximize Student Development </a></li> <li><a href="/university/international-students-scholars-office/">International Students and Scholars Office</a></li> <li><a href="/university/learning-resource-services/">Learning Resource Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/library/">Library</a></li> <li><a href="/university/office-postdoctoral-scholars/">Office for Postdoctoral Scholars</a></li> <li><a href="/university/office-career-professional-development/">Office of Career and Professional Development</a></li> <li><a href="/university/office-diversity-outreach/">Office of Diversity and Outreach</a></li> <li><a href="/university/office-institutional-research/">Office of Institutional Research</a></li> <li><a href="/university/office-registrar/">Office of the Registrar</a></li> <li><a href="/university/registered-campus-organizations/">Registered Campus Organizations</a></li> <li><a href="/university/restorative-justice-practices/">Restorative Justice Practices</a></li> <li><a href="/university/safety-services/">Safety Services</a></li> <li class="active self"><a href="#" onclick="return false;">Student Disability Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/student-financial-services/">Student Financial Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/student-life/">Student Life</a></li> <li><a href="/university/student-health-counseling/">Student Mental Health and Wellbeing Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/student-rights-responsibilities/">Student Rights and Responsibilities</a></li> <li><a href="/university/student-veteran-military-support-services/">Student Veteran and Military Support Services</a></li> <li><a href="/university/summer-research-training-program/">Summer Research Training Program</a></li> <li><a href="/university/synapse-ucsf-student-voices/">Synapse: UCSF Student Voices</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="/academic-administrative-calendar/">Academic and Administrative Calendar</a></li> <li><a href="/accreditation/">Accreditation</a></li> <li class="isparent"><a href="/course-catalog/">Course Catalog</a></li> <li class="isparent"><a href="/course-search/">Search Courses</a></li> <li><a href="/catalogcontents/">Catalog Contents</a></li> <li><a href="/azindex/">Catalog A-Z Index</a></li> </ul> </nav> </div> <div class="sidebar-item"> <button id="print-btn" href="#print-dialog" onclick="showPrintDialog();
