Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services (DHHS)
Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services would like to welcome you to the University of Winnipeg (UWinnipeg).
We are here to support you and your academic goals by providing quality supports/accommodations and ensuring equal access to everything that UWinnipeg has to offer. We offer accommodations such as ASL-English Interpreters and Transcribers/Notetakers to students who are Deaf or have a hearing loss.
Due to the nature of these academic accommodations, it is strongly recommended that new students book an intake appointment with the Coordinator of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services at least two months prior to the start date of the academic term.
If you are a returning student, contact the Coordinator of DHHS two weeks prior to the start of term with your academic schedule details.
Students who are registered with Deaf and Hard of Hearing services also have access to the same accommodations as students who are registered with Accessibility Services (AS) such as Test/Exam accommodations. DHHS/AS requires medical documentation for all academic accommodations.
** If you are a Deaf and Hard of Hearing student that has been approved for additional accommodations, please send out Letters of Accommodations and book your test and exams through the Student Portal.
