Funding for academic accommodations includes support from the institution and provincial/federal disability grants. There is no cost to students for in class support services. There may be some costs associated with out of class supports such as tutoring or academic strategies, however, this will be discussed when you meet with an Accessibility Advisor.
Students must first apply and be deemed eligible for a federal student loan or part-time financial assistance. Our office can help students with the Schedule 4 disability grant application.
