<General Information<Academic Services and Support

The Office for Persons with Disabilities (OPD) provides information, support and advocacy on behalf of students, staff and faculty with physical and sensory disabilities as well as medical conditions.

Office assistance includes advising on financial and academic matters, referrals for personal counselling as well as other University services and community resources such as the Independent Living Assistance program.

If you have received your acceptance to the University, it is in your best interest to contact the OPD as soon as possible.

While the OPD offers a short orientation, we do suggest that you take part in your college or Faculty orientation, which will provide you with valuable information and give you the opportunity to meet fellow peers.

The Office for Persons with Disabilities is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm. The office is located in N108 Ross Building. 416-736-5140 Voice, 416-736- 5263 TTY, 416-650-8068 Fax. You may also reach us by e-mail at opd@yorku.ca, or online at http://www.yorku.ca/opd/.
