The Thomas Kilian Academic Success Center (ASC) staff provides students free support services. We'll connect you with resources that will empower you to achieve your goals, both academically and personally.
The University of Sioux Falls is committed to ensuring that all students with a qualifying and documented learning, physical or psychological disability are provided reasonable accommodations in accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.
Providing access to a diverse student population is embedded in the philosophy of USF. We recognize disability as an aspect of diversity that is integral to society and to the campus community. To this end, Learning Accessibility Services (LAS) collaborates with students, faculty, staff and community members to create usable, equitable, inclusive and sustainable learning environments.
Educational access is the provision of classroom accommodations, auxiliary aids and services that ensure equal educational opportunities for all students regardless of disability. LAS provide qualifying students with the tools, accommodations and support services to participate fully in the academic environment.
All accommodations for students with disabilities are made in consultation with LAS. If you believe you have a disability requiring accommodations in any academic course, please contact us. For additional information regarding your rights and responsibilities, visit the U.S. Department of Education.

They care about you not just as a student but as a person as well.
