Accessibility on Campus

For Visitors With Mobility Needs

College Hill is, as the name suggests, hilly. We have made significant investments in accessibility, but please plan ahead. ADA-accessible parking is available in Lots A and B and at the Rex Pyles Arena. The main academic ring (Burbick → Whitescarver → Pickett → Withers-Brandon → Kemper-Redd) is connected by paved walkways with curb cuts and gentle grades; an electric campus shuttle runs between the arena lot and the academic quad on a 20-minute loop, Monday through Friday.

Visitors who need assistance — a parking pass closer to a destination, a building escort, or accessible-route guidance — may contact the Office of Accessibility & Disability Services in advance at (304) 457-6308 or [email protected]. Same-day requests are welcome through Campus Safety at (304) 457-6346.
