Georgetown University: School of Foreign Service in Qatar

Georgetown University is committed to supporting the academic success of all students and recognizes that certain life events may inhibit this progress. Students who suffer a temporary injury (e.g., a broken arm or leg) and require assistance are encouraged to immediately contact their academic dean's office. In the event the injury occurred while the student was participating in a Georgetown intercollegiate athletic event, the student should also notify the Student Affairs Department.

While the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) does not recognize temporary disabilities as a disability for which accommodation is legally mandated, the academic deans' office, and when appropriate, the Student Affairs Department, are available to provide support as a courtesy, and wish to be informed about injuries promptly so that parties can effectively collaborate and coordinate reasonable support efforts. In particular, the academic deans' offices wish to be informed about any injury that will impact a student's academic responsibilities, so that they may collaborate with the student to develop a management plan for the convalescent period. The Student Wellness Counseling is available as a resource to administrators advising students with temporary injuries.
