If you have a disability, please let us know before your arrival so we can prepare and welcome you under the best conditions.

If you are a student with an existing disability, who may or may not has benefited from appropriate accommodations during their education for classes or exams, or who has recently had health problems interfering with the successful completion of their studies, you can benefit from dedicated administrative support, adapted access to premises, learning assistance (tutoriing, support, note-takers, etc.) and techniques.

The university support service for students with disabilities, the “Mission Handicap” is here to welcome students with disabilities and help them succeed their studies.

Mission Handicap assess the student's needs based on the medical opinion issued by the University Health Service and, on the basis of an interview, proposes and ensures the implementation of the Disability Student Support Plan.

The Disability Student Support Plan
This plan is divided into 4 areas:
  • Assessment of the student's needs and follow-up throughout the academic year but also in the continuity of the course
  • Campus Accessibility Assistance
  • Study planning
  • Examination accommodation
