Accessibility & Counseling
Supporting Student Success Through Access and Wellness
Accessibility Services.
Defiance College is committed to ensuring all students have the tools they need to succeed. Our Accessibility Services office partners with students who have documented disabilities to provide equal access to academic programs, activities, and resources. We follow all federal and state guidelines, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, to determine reasonable accommodations and coordinate support.
If you have an impairment that substantially limits a major life activity, documented proof is required to receive academic adjustments. After admission, connect with our Accessibility Services Coordinator to discuss accommodations tailored to your needs.

Counseling Services.
The Counseling Center at Defiance College supports the psychological, educational, and social well-being of students through free, confidential counseling and mental health education. We help students navigate challenges like adjusting to college, relationships, academic decisions, and managing stress, anxiety, or depression.
Services include individual, group, couples, and family counseling, plus outreach programs on topics such as stress management, suicide prevention, healthy relationships, and substance use. Whether you’re facing a specific problem or simply need someone to talk to, our trained professionals are here to help.
