Documentation Must Include

  • Diagnosis or medical condition, and whether it is temporary or permanent.
  • A description of functional limitations, specifically related to walking, standing, or weight-bearing capacity.
  • Impact of major life activities, specifically if the condition substantially limits walking, standing, or navigating campus
  • Use of any assistive devices (e.g., wheelchair, boot, crutches).
  • Estimated duration of limitation (for temporary conditions).
  • A clear connection between the condition and the need for transport assistance.

Duration of Service and Reevaluation

  • Approval for Mobility Transport is granted on a quarterly basis.
  • For students with temporary mobility limitations, continued access to services for subsequent quarters requires reevaluation and updated documentation from a licensed medical professional or DSP.
  • Students may discontinue services at any time if they no longer require assistance.

Check to see if you qualify

Eligible Students

  • Functional mobility impairments due to permanent conditions requiring assistive devices (such as wheelchairs or crutches) or
  • Temporary injuries causing severe pain, instability, or non-weight-bearing restrictions.
  • Conditions that impact gait, balance, or endurance and prevent safe ambulation
  • Sight Impairment

Ineligible Students

  • If the condition does not directly impair mobility.
  • This includes students with non-mobility-related disabilities, upper-body injuries that don’t affect walking, and those seeking transport for convenience, fatigue, or environmental reasons.
  • Walking without assistive devices and without significant pain or impairment typically disqualifies a student from receiving services.
  • Requests must be rooted in clear, mobility-related needs supported by medical documentation.
