Albright College ensures that people with disabilities have equal opportunity to participate in its programs and activities, in compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA), and encourages qualified students to request impairment-related accommodations for which they qualify. Impairment-related academic adjustments, auxiliary aids, and services are offered through the Student Accessibility & Advocacy office, which handles all requests for academic accommodations and makes referrals to other college units as needed. The Director of Student Accessibility & Advocacy, Sherry Young, is committed to providing individual assessment of student needs and promotes self-advocacy and intentional learning among students with disabilities. The department fosters independent learning through a strengths-based approach and by providing faculty with consultation and resources. Impairment-related accommodations are provided while maintaining the academic standards of the college, and students, including prospective students, are encouraged to use their strengths and develop a growth mindset to nourish their commitment to lifelong learning.

For some programs, an interview may be required, and additional materials such as a high school report from the guidance department or a letter of recommendation may also be requested.
