Miscellaneous Assessments
Disability Documentation. Northwest Missouri State University is a moderately selective university. All prospective students must meet established
entrance criteria and be accepted through the Admissions Office before submitting disability-related documentation. Documentation should be submitted to the Office for Equity and Accessibility (OEA), not to the Admissions Office. Please review the
Acceptable Disability Documentation page carefully before contacting an OEA staff member.
After acceptance to Northwest, students with disabilities may request appropriate accommodations and submit supportive documentation to the Accessibility Coordinator. The Documentation Review Process can be found at http://www.nwmissouri.edu/diversity/accessibility/reviewprocess.htm. After the review has been completed, you will be contacted by an OEA member who will serve as your primary contact for services during your time at Northwest. If approved, your OEA contact will give you an accommodation letter outlining your accommodations that you will present to faculty and staff. This letter is recognized campus-wide as verification that you are a qualified student with a disability.
Graduate Assistant Fee Reductions/Work Related Scholarships. If employment is terminated and the student remains enrolled, the fee reduction or scholarship is prorated for time employed.
Student Health Insurance. International students are required to have an approved health insurance plan and will be charged for the plan through their Northwest account.
