The Office of Learning Support (OLS) at Ashoka University was set up in 2016 challenging the status quo in higher education for inclusion of students with invisible disabilities, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia and other specific learning disabilities. Since then, the office has expanded its support to other disabilities as well. Over the last few years, it has supported students with visual impairment, hearing impairment, autism, cerebral palsy along with various specific learning disabilities. The office acts as a central resource centre on specific-needs-related information and services for the University and also promotes a collaborative approach to implement inclusive practices at Ashoka.
“Studying in a university should be an exciting time for any student, yet for those who face learning challenges it can be an anxious time. The thought of keeping up with the expectations at this level can be overwhelming for some students, especially if they know that they do need some assistance to be able to work at their potential. We at Office of Learning support understand that and provide state-of-the-art support system to ensure that every student with specific needs is able to get full access to and can participate fully in the academic and social aspect of their university life. With the right usage of technological advancements, OLS is committed to understand, procure and apply the best practices in its services.”
