For students with learning disabilities and other documented disabilities, our Student and Academic Services office has a Disabilities Resource Facilitator who provides service to NSCAD students. To set up an appointment, please call Bill Travis at (902) 494 8313. Services and accommodations will vary, depending on the individual needs of each student, but can include note-taking and tutoring services, the provision of texts and readings in digital format (for persons with print disabilities), the accommodation of special needs for writing exams, and assistance with applications for the Canada Study Grant for Students with Disabilities. Learning disability pre-assessment appointments can also be arranged with Dalhousie University's Counselling and Psychological Services.
