The Office of Student Disability Services (SDS) is dedicated to providing equal access to the college curriculum and supports the success of City College students with disabilities. Students enrolled at CCNY who have any kind of disability (i.e. physical, learning, emotional or medical) are encouraged to register with SDS as early as possible to insure that all services can be extended in a timely manner. To receive services, students must provide appropriate documentation of a disability from a qualified health provider or agency. SDS works with students to provide appropriate accommodations, adjustments, and support services, including academic skills workshops, tutoring, support groups, class work facilitation, and assistive technology services.
Early planning is essential for many of the resources, accommodations, and adjustments provided. Contact us at the earliest possible date so we can provide the appropriate assistance.

The Office of Student Services provides programmatic and informational support to help students further their academic and personal growth goals. This office serves as a clearinghouse for the Division of Student Affairs where students are given help or guidance with different types of problems, i.e., how to navigate the College bureaucracy to resolve an academic or personal problem; where to get counseling within and outside the institution; how to locate the College’s programs and resources that deal with a broad range of students’ financial and social concerns; and similar issues that students may encounter. Hence the goal is to provide clear and accessible information to allow students to feel empowered in their interactions with the institution.
