DISABILITY SUPPORT SERVICES
Integral to an Emmanuel College education is academic advising which provides a comprehensive framework where students are able to explore the curriculum and focus on achieving their goals effectively. Students may meet regularly with their Academic Advisors to learn academic policies and procedures, to develop short- and longterm academic plans, to discuss academic progress, to select and schedule courses and for referrals to additional resources.
Emmanuel College is committed to providing full access of its educational programs for students with documented disabilities. We practice a nondiscriminatory policy and offer classroom and testing accommodations, and assistive technology, to students with documented disabilities. The Disability Support Services office ensures that all students with disabilities can actively participate in all facets of college life. Our goal is to coordinate and provide a variety of services that allow all students to have access to the collegiate curriculum and experience. In addition, our focus and responsibility is to increase the level of awareness among all members of the college community.
ACADEMIC RESOURCE CENTER The Academic Resource Center (ARC), located on the ground floor of the Cardinal Cushing Library, offers a variety of programs, resources and support to aid students in their quest for academic success. ARC services are designed to help students develop and enhance effective academic strategies based on their own strengths and needs.

Writing Specialists provide expert writing assistance in any discipline and at any stage of the writing process, enabling students to clarify their thoughts, revise the organization of their ideas and refine the style of their writing.
