Study Abroad
Studying abroad is an exciting experience for everyone. Students should keep in mind that approval for disability accommodations at UCF based on the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) may not receive the same accommodations in another country due to variance in the host country’s accessibility laws. The process for requesting disability accommodations will differ depending on the type of study abroad program and the host country. Students interested in studying abroad should take the necessary steps to plan and prepare for the experience.
UCF Study Abroad offers a variety different program options, and the process will vary in terms of how accommodations can be considered and applied.
- UCF-In Programs and UCF International Centers are UCF faculty lead programs. SAS will facilitate reasonable accommodations and work directly with the respective faculty and UCF Abroad program to provide equal access when feasible within the scope of the experience. Please reach out to sas@ucf.edu for more information regarding the accommodations process.
- Outgoing Exchange Programs, UCF International Centers, Partner Programs and Internships Abroad are coordinated by third parties that are distinct from UCF and subject to the laws of the respective country. Accommodations cannot be guaranteed, even if approved for accommodations at UCF. Please reach out to studyabroad@ucf.edu for information regarding the accommodations process.
For study abroad students coming to UCF seeking accommodations, please see our Start Here page to begin the accommodations process.
