Registering for Disability Support
Students who have previously established eligibility for disability support services must visit the LRC each semester in order to continue their programs of support. We recommend that students visit no later than the first week of classes.
Incoming students and those seeking first-time accommodations must visit the LRC as soon as possible to register, submit documentation, and establish eligibility. Once documentation has been reviewed, and a student deemed eligible for services, the LRC can begin a formal program of support in cooperation with the student, professors, and/or College staff.

Some students may be eligible for housing modifications.
Support Services for All MICA Students
All students may utilize the LRC's assistive technology. These software packages aid students with reading and writing assignments.
