Disability Support Services (DSS) is the office on campus that provides reasonable accommodations and services for students with disabilities. If you need accommodations, you should contact DSS at 410-704-2638 (voice/tdd) as soon as possible after completing your enrollment contract to set up an appointment. Complete, up-to-date and appropriate documentation of the disability is required. Specific documentation requirements are provided on the DSS Web site. Please note that requirements for receiving accommodations in college may be different than high school requirements. Meeting with a DSS specialist before the term begins can help students get off to a great start for achieving academic success! Student LIFE Line Have a question about TU? An answer is just a phone call away. LIFE Line is a telephone line created to answer your questions about the university. LIFE Line is staffed and ready to assist callers Monday–Friday, 8:30 a.m.–5 p.m. After 5 p.m. and on weekends, you can leave a voicemail message, and you will get a response the next business day. The LIFE Line number is 410-704-LIFE (5433). Purchase Textbooks The University Store is Towson University’s only official source for textbooks and course materials as a result of its direct access to the most current and accurate textbook information from faculty. The University Store carries the exact titles and editions of your textbooks as specified by your professors. All textbooks are competitively priced and the University Store’s liberal and hassle-free return policy (with original receipt) makes it easy to return textbooks if you drop a class or do not need the book. To help you save money, the University Store tries to provide as many used copies as possible, which are priced 25 percent lower than new books. Textbooks for fall 2008 will be available for purchase in the University Store on or about August 25. Extended hours will be available during the week of August 25, including move-in weekend. While you are buying your books, don’t forget to check out the wide array of other merchandise in the University Store. Our most distinctive merchandise which promotes school spirit and recognition consists of quality TU emblematic adult and children’s clothing, giftware and stationery. The University Store is the home of the official Towson University class ring. You can view a sampling of our clothing and gifts in our online Store. Then visit the University Store in its convenient location on the first floor of the University Union for a unique shopping experience. The University Store accepts OneCard Retail/Vending Points, cash, personal checks with proper ID (the imprinted last name on the check must match the ID of the customer), VISA, Mastercard and Discover. If using a credit card, the person using the credit card must be the authorized user. The University Store is owned and operated by Towson University. All profits generated from the sale of merchandise are reinvested into the university to help support student programs and activities. Academic HELP Sometimes there are questions that we don't want to ask our advisers— like, "Is this a really hard course?" or "What happens if I turn in an assignment late to that chemistry professor?" Wouldn't it be easier to get the lowdown from another student—someone who's already been through it? At Towson, you can with the HELP program, which provides peer advising so that every last person can get every last question answered. Just stop by the Academic Advising Center to talk with a student academic adviser.
