Eligibility for Transportation
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, disability alone does not qualify a person for transportation services. The AAS Transportation Program is available to the following general groups of persons with disabilities:
- Arkansas State University students who have a specific disability, impairment, and/or condition that prevents them from fully engaging in a major life activity (i.e., walking) to/from academic buildings.
- Arkansas State University students who need a wheelchair accessible golf cart to/from academic buildings due to physical constraints.
- Arkansas State University students for which no other equitable accommodation can be made to/from academic buildings (i.e., ADA accessible parking).
How to Apply for AAS Transportation
**Skip step 1 if you have already completed the registration process**
- Complete the AAS registration process. Paper applications are available if necessary.
- Submit online registration form and documentation of disability.
- Complete an intake meeting with an AAS counselor.
- Read the Transportation Program Operating Procedure.
- Complete the transportation form. Paper applications are available if necessary.
Eligible students will be put on the schedule for regular pick-ups. The student will receive their schedule via A-State email from the Transportation Coordinator within 24 hours if all information is filled out correctly and medical documentation is verified. Weekends, holidays, and/or campus closures will delay response times.
Students with temporary, minor injuries or conditions (broken leg, sprained ankle, etc.) are not protected under 504/ADA, but AAS will try to support you as much as reasonably possible.
