Counselling and Accessibility Services offers support for students trying to manage the complexities of College life. Students are seen on a voluntary, confidential basis, with the help offered to fulfil their personal and academic potential, through individual and/or group support. Seneca supports the Ontario Human Rights Code in that the needs of students with disabilities must be accommodated to ensure equal access to educational services.
In accordance with the new Ontario Human Rights Commission processes introduced in 2016, students are not required to provide medical documentation directly to their professors to receive academic accommodations. All requests for reasonable academic accommodation for students with temporary or permanent disabilities will be considered, including retroactive requests.
Please note that questions or concerns about an academic accommodation must be discussed with your Academic Chair or with a Counselling and Accessibility Services representative – not with your student.
Counselling and Accessibility Services offers support for all students trying to manage the complexities of College life. Their counsellors work with students to identify individual accommodation needs so that students can more fully participate in their academic studies.
Counselling and Accessibility Services will email accommodation letters to faculty, student adviser, and the Chair or program designate. Faculty are responsible for making arrangements for students with accommodations. For procedures, information, and the Request to Test form, click here.
