ADA Compliance and Reasonable Accommodation

The University of New Mexico-Valencia Campus is committed to the recognition and the proactive pursuit of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). The University makes reasonable accommodation for religious observances, national origin practices of a student and to the known physical or mental limitations of a qualified student, unless such accommodations have the end result of fundamentally altering a program or service or placing an undue hardship on the operation of the University.

For information regarding accommodations in the academic and/or employment setting for qualified students with disabilities, or if you have a special need and require an auxiliary aide and/or service, please contact Student Services (505.925.8560).
