The Disability Services Office at the University of Hawaiʻi–West Oʻahu is dedicated to providing a supportive environment where students with disabilities (incoming and current students) will be provided with equal access to help students through their academic journey. Our faculty and staff will provide reasonable accommodations that are tailored to each student’s needs with the goal of removing barriers to access to the greatest extent possible.
