About the Business
The University of Maryland Accessibility and Disability Service, located at 4281 Chapel Lane, College Park, Maryland, United States, is dedicated to supporting all undergraduate and graduate students with disabilities. We ensure equal access and inclusion in education by coordinating academic, housing, and student employment/assistantship accommodations.
Our institution recognizes disability as a diverse aspect of our campus community, with both visible and invisible disabilities. We celebrate the unique qualities and strengths that each student brings to our community. Following the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), we personalize accommodations through discussion, documentation review, and collaboration with instructors or departments.
You can schedule a consultation with a disability specialist to understand accommodations related to your UMD experience, implement accommodations, access important forms, and learn about services such as testing, classroom access, housing, and more. To request disability accommodations and begin working with ADS, complete the necessary steps outlined on our website.
We strive to create an inclusive campus environment, offering resources to help you thrive in both personal and academic settings. From supportive communities to quiet spaces, we aim to enhance your Maryland experience. Learn how to transition accommodations from other institutions, access short-term accommodations for temporary conditions, and register with ADS if you're completing a course or program at Maryland without seeking a degree.
Our front desk staff is available to answer your questions, provide information on eligibility and reasonable accommodations, or connect you with a disability specialist.

Reviews
"I called twice and got connected to a representative within a minute or two and got all of the information I needed. I don't see why they get such a negative reputation... I have had nothing but positive experiences with the ADS support phone line."
"This place absolutely sucks. Front desk deserves to be fired. Clearly the university doesn’t care about its students as this office is absolute trash."
"Hours are seriously not enough for people with disabilities and classes. Needs to be open earlier at 7am, or even better, close sometime around 6pm. Not very accessible in my opinion!!"
"Extremely disorganized and horrible service for ads note takers. Critical paperwork and documents are processed months late. Students are forced to go onto campus to “review” documents and a major inconvenience for those out of state. Emails take days to gain a response and consistently disregard/ignore your concerns. Overall extremely dysfunctional and have never seen this in any other university departments."
"Very VERY disorganized!! If you want disability services, do NOT go to UMD at College Park. They have an excellent disability service at UMBC, its sister campus."
