Accessibility to Adventure
At its core, TREK's goal is to connect incoming first-year students with each other and with upperclass students through a shared love of service and the outdoors. We know that historically these types of programs have been designed for temporarily able-bodied people and athletic body types. We intentionally design a variety of trip types and difficulties so that the TREK program can be accessible to the widest range of body size, previous experience, physical ability and required accommodations. Within each trip description we are explicit about the physical challenges present on each trip to help you understand if you’ll want to ask for an accommodation.
Students with any type of disability are encouraged to apply and participate in all TREK programs. We will provide reasonable and appropriate accommodations, in consultation with the UVM Student Accessibility Services.
Have Questions?
We have a lot of trips with a lot of logistics. We imagine you might have some questions! We hope our TREK FAQs will address a majority of your questions and help you get your bearings while you prepare for your TREK experience.
