Accessibility

At Pratt Institute, we define accessibility as the ability for any individual in our community to access campus spaces, websites and systems, and participate in meetings, work, class, exhibits, and events without barriers. To assist the Institute in meeting this commitment, the Pratt Accessibility Advisory Committee oversees actions, policies and practices to improve access to campus facilities, programs and technology resources. To learn more about on-campus resources for disabled people, disability rights history, and more, visit the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Disability Resource Guide

Pratt is committed to providing equal and effective access for all students, faculty, staff, and visitors with disabilities. Reasonable accommodations will be provided for individuals with disabilities, including chronic illness, in a fair and equitable manner, and in accordance with applicable federal and state law. Requests for accommodations should be made reasonably in advance of an appointment or program, to allow sufficient time to make any necessary modifications to ensure the relevant classes, programs or activities are readily accessible.
