University of Maryland University College is committed to assisting students with disabilities to the extent possible so that they are able to pursue their educational goals. Reasonable accommodations are available for students who have disabilities so that the students will have the opportunity to develop and demonstrate proficiency in the required subject matter. Students also share the responsibility for ensuring that appropriate accommodations can be made, and are primarily responsible for identifying, documenting, and communicating their disabilities to the University. Any special arrangements should be agreed to in writing before the first class meeting each term. Students who want more information or who wish to file a petition relating to their disability should contact the Director, Student Affairs, at UMUC Asia’s administrative headquarters in Tokyo (Yokota Air Base).

All UMUC students are required to meet University policies and procedures and the academic degree requirements of all undergraduate certificates and degrees. Students with disabilities should review the requirements outlined in the current UMUC Asia Catalog. Students should not apply to a UMUC certificate or degree program with the expectation that any academic requirement will be waived or substituted.
