Is the UVM Web site accessible to users with disabilities?

We strive to make the UVM Web site accessible to all users and we make an effort to include a wide variety of accessibility features.

If you have an accessibility problem with any portion of the UVM Web site, please contact us at: webteam@uvm.edu.
