ADA/504 Compliance Statement
In accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) of 1990, and the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) of 2008, Southern New
Hampshire University does not discriminate on the basis of disability, including intellectual disability, in admission,
treatment, or access to its programs or activities, nor does it discriminate in employment in its programs or
activities.

P a g e | 5 S y l l a b u s L a s t U p d a t e d 10/19/2021
The university prohibits unlawful discrimination on the basis of disability and takes action to prevent such
discrimination by providing reasonable accommodations to eligible individuals with disabilities. A disability is a
condition or impairment that impacts a “major life activity” or “major bodily function.”
 Major life activities include, but are not limited to, caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, seeing,
hearing, eating, sleeping, walking, standing, lifting, bending, speaking, breathing, learning, reading,
concentrating, thinking, communicating, and working.
 Major bodily functions include, but are not limited to, functions of the immune system, normal cell
growth, and digestive, bowel, bladder, neurological, brain, respiratory, circulatory, endocrine, and
reproductive functions. Disabilities include physical, medical (including pregnancy), mental health, and
learning needs.
At the beginning of each term, or as soon as you become aware of a disability or accessibility concern, we
encourage you to contact the Online Accessibility Center (OAC) to discuss accommodations for which you may be
qualified. Reasonable accommodations are established through an interactive process between the student and
the OAC.

PSY 260: Statistical Literacy in Psychology Entire Course Help-Snhu

Note that accommodations are not retroactive and that disability accommodations are not provided until
acceptable documentation of a disability and its impact is received and an accommodation letter has been
processed. If you are unsure whether your condition qualifies as a disability or accessibility concern, please contact
the OAC for determination.
Contact Information:
Online Accessibility Center
Phone: 866-305-9430
Email: oac@snhu.edu
For questions concerning support services, documentation guidelines, or general disability issues, please visit
the Online Accessibility Center website.
If you feel you have been denied appropriate disability-related accommodations, including appropriate auxiliary
aids and services, you may file a grievance as described in the ADA/504 Grievance Policy found on the Disability
and Accessibility Services website.
