Report an Accessibility Barrier
At Western, we strive to provide inclusive experiences for all students, staff and faculty. Specifically:
- We're working to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level for our digital content, and
- We work to design and maintain our facilities for Section 504 and ADA compliance.
Despite our efforts, you may run into a barrier in our digital or physical spaces that hinders the Western experience. We want to remove any barriers, so please let us know in the form below how we can make Western more accessible.
