Campus Accessibility

DRU works tirelessly to ensure that all campuses are fully accessible. Although not all buildings may be fully accessible (due to certain restrictions such as heritage status, etc.), the DRU is instrumental in organising structural or organisational adjustments to enable students with disabilities to attend their classes or, if required, find alternative ways of making the curriculum accessible.

Applicants are encouraged to visit the University at an early stage in their application in order to assess the suitability and accessibility of departments, lecture venues and living accommodations, and to identify the level of support and facilities available. If a student's requirements are known well in advance, the University will make every effort to accommodate the necessary adaptations for the student.
