可访问性 & 残疾在国外
Off-campus study opportunities exist for 所有 科罗拉多大学 students, 无论你的专业是什么, 年龄, 性别, 取向, 财务能力, 或残疾. The key to a successful experience for students with disabilities lies in careful planning with CC's Center for 全球教育 & 野外研究, your partner program or host university abroad (if applicable), and the 办公室 可访问性资源. We work together to assist students in obtaining reasonable accommodations, 在可能的情况下, but it is important to be aware of cultural differences that can affect the provision of accommodations.

It's important to communicate early with faculty about arrangements for accommodations and to address other concerns you may have. Ask about essential course requirements and what you can expect in terms of travel, 住宿, 体育活动, 等.

It's important to consult with program coordinators and to consider cultural differences that can affect access during an international experience.

卡洛琳美女, 曾在荷兰留学的赌博正规的十大网站校友, 她分享了自己的经历:
"My biggest fear of going abroad was lacking travel friends because they would find my disability too much of a limiting factor in getting around-being creative and clear about what I could do helped me to find travel companions who remain good friends. Re搜索ing the transit system … helped 所有eviate uncertainty … Successful spending time abroad reinforced my confidence in how independent I can be, 也是大学里最好的学期之一."
