Accessibility Resources Highlights
- Automatic Door Openers

Additionally any interior hallway doors leading into the residential areas include automatic door openers. Residents who need to automatically operate these doors are given a remote that signals the door to open as needed.
- ADA/Accessible units are available in all our residence halls.
- These spaces and features vary by building, but can include automatic unit and/or bedroom doors, roll-in/transfer showers, wider doorways, strobes (doorbells and fire alarm), lower closet shelves and larger bedrooms.
- Elevator Access
- All of the residence halls on campus have elevators available which allows wheelchair users to navigate easily throughout our buildings.
