Disability Resources is committed to providing students with disabilities equal access to programs and services on our campus. We work to create an environment where students with disabilities are welcomed, valued, and respected by all members of our community. We review requests for academic, non-academic, and residential accommodations due to a disability and makes recommendations as appropriate.

Diversity and Inclusive Development

Multnomah is committed to fostering an environment where every student, of any age, race, nationality, gender, socio-economic status, ability, or faith denomination belongs and is a valued part of our community. Consistent with our core values, we aim to develop an intentionally diverse Christian academic community. Diversity, of course, is not an end in itself; rather it is a means to the loft goal of cultivating a healthy educational environment. Faculty, staff, and students partner together to develop opportunities to honor diverse voices and perspectives and grow in embracing the full Imago Dei.

Veteran Resources

Veterans Resources work with the guidance and care of the Diversity and Inclusive Development Department. We realize that Veterans have unique needs and we seek to help them find a home in our community of care.

For more on Veteran Benefits, please contact the Office of the Registrar.

We recognize that Veterans often struggle to find a community that understands them and their unique needs. Many Veterans are also non-traditional students that are older with jobs and/or families. At Multnomah University, we seek to foster a community for our military veterans while providing access to resources, services, educational benefits, and connections across the campus.

The Veterans Resource Center (VRC) is a dedicated place on the Portland campus designed to support student-veterans. Connect with other student veterans, meet, study, or just relax in our dedicated space focused on providing veterans a place to call their own.
