Accessibility services and resources

At Bond University, we’re committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every student has the opportunity to succeed. We offer a range of accessibility services and resources to support your academic journey and campus experience.

Whether you need academic adjustments, assistive technology, or help navigating campus, our team is here to support you.

Accessibility and inclusion

If you have a disability, medical condition, injury or other circumstances that may impact your studies, you can access tailored support through Accessibility and Inclusion.
Support may include:

  • Learning Access Plans (LAPs) with approved reasonable adjustments
  • Assistive technology and specialised software
  • Alternative assessment arrangements (e.g. extra time, adjusted conditions)
  • Advice and support from the Accessibility and Inclusion Advisor

Registering early helps ensure your support is in place when you need it.

Students helping students

Starting university can be exciting—and a little overwhelming. That’s where our Students Helping Students program comes in. Located in the Main Library, this peer-assisted learning program is designed specifically for new students. It offers friendly, informal support from trained student mentors who’ve been where you are.

Whether you need help with study strategies, understanding course content, or just want to connect with others, our student mentors are here to make your transition into university life smoother and more successful. Through group sessions, study drop-ins, and campus-wide events, we help you build the confidence and skills you need to thrive.
