The University admits students without regard to race, gender, creed, color, age, physical ability, sexual orientation, or national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the University. It complies with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, and does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, creed, color, age, physical ability, sexual orientation, or national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admission policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletics and other University-administered programs. The University of Hartford hereby provides notice to its students, employees, applicants, and others that it supports the language and intent of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (and regulations issued pursuant thereto), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in its educational programs and activities, including admission and access to the University.
