Accessibility

Irvine Valley College strives to create an inclusive environment that offers accommodation services for students as well as faculty, staff, and visitors to the college. We seek to meet the accessibility goals of state and federal laws and regulatory agencies including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and California Code of Regulations Title 5: Nondiscrimination. Board Policy 3425 requires full compliance with the requirements of the ADA Act. Consistent with that policy, disability accommodations will be provided as needed for program access, upon request.
