Student Equity, Diversity and Disability Service

The Student Equity, Diversity and Disability Service provides a free, confidential service for students with a disability and/or medical condition, either permanent or temporary, which may affect various aspects of life at ECU.

In order to access the support that this Service can provide, it is extremely important that you contact the Student Equity, Diversity and Disability Officer - as soon as practicable on or before your enrolment, to ensure a smooth transition into your studies.
