Non-Discrimination Statement and Need for Reasonable Accommodation Disclosure
The University of North Carolina Wilmington is committed to complying with all federal, state, and local requirements of nondiscrimination. UNCW supports the right of enrolled students to a full and equal educational opportunity and is committed to reasonable accommodations for individuals with documented disabilities or who are impacted by Title IX concerns.
Students with disabilities for whom accommodations may be necessary must be registered with and provide official notification through UNCW’s Disability Resource Center. Once established, responsibility for disability-related accommodations and access is shared by DRC, faculty and the student.
Individuals who wish to report any form of gender-based discrimination or sexual misconduct/harassment—and those requesting related accommodations—should contact UNCW’s Title IX Office. Students may also report incidents of misconduct to their faculty; however, be aware that faculty are required by law to notify the Title IX office. If students wish to seek confidential resources without reporting an incident, three departments at UNCW are exempt from mandatory reporting requirements: CARE: Interpersonal Violence Prevention & Response, University Counseling Center and Abrons Student Health Center.
