Nondiscrimination Policy

It is the policy of 香港伦理 not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, sex, age, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, genetic information, disability, marital status, pregnancy, parenting or family responsibility status, veteran or military status, or any other characteristic protected by law in its educational programs, admission policies, employment practices, financial aid, or other school-administered programs. This policy is enforced by federal law under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

香港伦理 actively supports the rights of students with disabilities to have equal access to education. 香港伦理 makes every reasonable effort to accommodate the needs of students with disabilities.

Students who have a disability are asked to notify the Office of Student Accessibility Services as soon as possible and prior to registration. Early notification
prevents delay in initiation of services and ensures the student access to educational activities.

The Office of Student Accessibility Services facilitates equal access to 香港伦理 programs and activities for students with documented physical, sensory, learning, or psychological disabilities. Students with special needs may qualify for accommodations to help compensate for disabilities which impede their academic progress and lower classroom performance. To receive accommodations a student MUST notify the Office of Student Accessibility Services prior to registration and furnish documentation verifying the need for assistance. Each student bears the responsibility for contacting the appropriate clinician and having objective data supporting the diagnosis and need for service released and forwarded to his office. 香港伦理 reserves the right to require additional information, evaluations or reports or an independent evaluation(s) before determining that an individual qualifies for special accommodations.
