Welcome to Student Accessibility Services
The Buffalo State University Student Accessibility Services (SAS) is committed to providing access and support for students with disabilities. We seek to develop strong self-advocacy skills and prepare students for post-collegiate experiences. SAS strongly affirms that diversity of abilities in the university community is a source of excellence, enrichment, and strength.
Continual Support Program
Looking for a program to increase your academic and social skills while being supported as a student with a disability?
Continual Support is a student-driven academic support program focused on executive functioning and skill development. Students work closely with our Learning and Accommodations Specialist, a two-time Buffalo State graduate, and their dedicated support team, to identify and select appropriate, attainable goals each semester. Together, they create a Personal Learning Plan grounded in self-advocacy and individualized needs. Through one-on-one coaching, students develop essential executive functioning skills such as time management, organization, planning, task initiation, prioritization, and self-regulation. Individualized meetings provide structured support to break down assignments, build effective routines, strengthen academic and social skills, and increase independence, helping students manage university demands more effectively and succeed long term.
Accommodations
Student Accessibility Services partners with the faculty community to ensure that approved accommodations for students are implemented. Students who have been approved for accommodations will use Accommodate to track accommodation requests.
