Special Needs Services
The Special Needs Services (SNS) Center ensures that all UAEU students with disabilities have access to educational
opportunities equal to their fellow students. Students who suspect that they have a disability or who are referred to the
Center for screening are encouraged to schedule a consultation appointment with the director of the Center in order
to explore whether a formal evaluation for a possible disability is needed.
Any student with a documented disability may choose to access the services provided by the SNS by submitting the
required registration forms. The SNS welcomes all inquiries about its services.
If a graduate student has a disability, it is helpful to let the Special Needs Services Center know as soon as the student
joins the university. Following the student’s contact with the Center, an initial “intake” interview will be arranged. The
student will need to provide a completed Disability Support Application Form together with evidence of his/her disability,
medical condition, or specific learning difficulty. Such as a doctor’s letter or educational psychologist’s report which
contains a clear statement of the disability and recommended adjustments/accommodations.
Restaurants and Retail Outlets
The campus has a diverse selection of restaurants, cafeterias, pizzerias, cafés and other dining facilities. There is a food
court located at each of the male and female campuses, which offers a wide selection of healthy and nutritious foods,
including Oriental, Middle-Eastern, Asian, and European menus.
Moreover, there are accessory and specialty shops and grocery stores at the female and male campuses.
