What is ACES?

The Accessibility Centre and Education Support (ACES) unit is dedicated to the provision of academic accommodations at Grenfell Campus. ACES offers a range of support services and accommodations, collaborates with students and faculty to develop individualized plans, promotes disability awareness, and works towards creating an inclusive and accessible campus.

In collaboration with faculty, staff, students, and off-campus agencies, Grenfell Campus, Memorial University is committed to providing an accessible learning environment for students with disabilities. Accommodating disabilities is a shared responsibility between university staff, faculty, and administrators. We assist prospective and current students whose disabilities involve mobility, vision, hearing, learning (disabilities), chronic illnesses, or mental health. Support is also provided to students with documented temporary illnesses and injuries. Please see the Accessibility Policy for Students with Disabilities for more information. 

 

New Students Seeking Academic Accommodations 

If you are an incoming Memorial student, or a returning student to Memorial and not currently registered with our office and are looking to register with our office for the first time, you can request an intake appointment at any time by selecting the "Register with our office" button below.  This link will guide you through the completion of an intake form and allow you to upload any documentation you wish to share with us to support or accompany your request.  Once we receive your request for support, we will schedule a meeting with one of our Advisors.

To assist you with completing this online process, we have created a video tutorial (YouTube) as well as a step-by-step guide: Guide - Online Intake (PDF).

Please email gcaces@mun.ca for more information.
