Our Mission is to provide an inclusive environment which ensures equal access for all students to education and all aspects of University life by providing reasonable accommodations, participating in interactive student meetings, and promoting access for HPU students, staff, and faculty. High Point University will not discriminate in the recruitment, admission, educational process, or treatment of students with disabilities. In making reasonable accommodations, the University considers educational academic accommodations, accessible housing, and other services available to all students.
The Office of Accessibility Resources and Services (OARS) aspires to empower students to receive equal access to education and all aspects of university life, through removing barriers to equal access and promoting self-advocacy through multidisciplinary partnerships.

As part of the Office of Student Life, we handle the needs of students with disabilities and we take those needs seriously.
OARS supports the mission of the University, the Office of Student Life mission, and the OARS departmental mission through three primary tenets.
Remove barriers to equal access to learning, participating, and benefiting from the programs, services, and activities at High Point University.
Promote self-advocacy. OARS strives to help students develop skills to advocate for accommodations, increase understanding of their disability and be proactive in eliminating barriers.
Engage in multi-disciplinary partnerships to ensure appropriate and reasonable accommodations.
