Learning/Access Center (formerly Disability Resource Center) 

Pratt’s Learning/Access Center (L/AC) facilitates full access for Pratt students with disabilities so they can freely and actively participate in all facets of Pratt life. The L/AC collaborates to provide Institute-wide advisement and consultation on disability-related matters (including legal compliance and universal design) and provides individual services and tools to facilitate diverse learning styles and accommodations in a sustainable, inclusive manner.

Current and prospective Pratt students who identify as having disabilities, including learning disorders, ADHD, psychological/psychiatric conditions, chronic illnesses, physical/mobility conditions, blindness, low vision and hearing loss, as well as temporary disabilities can register with the L/AC to determine and receive reasonable accommodations for the classroom, housing, and other campus settings. The L/AC also arranges elevator access, assistive technology, software, and materials in alternative formats. L/AC staff assist students in connecting with helpful Institute resources, advocate for students in implementing accommodations,, and collaborate with campus department administrators regarding specific student needs.The L/AC also houses the  Veteran Resource Center and works with the Accessibility Committee to advance accessibility at Pratt
