Accessibility Statement
The University of Florida is committed to ensuring that all members of our community — including students, faculty, staff, alumni and visitors — have equitable access to our digital information, services and online experiences. In alignment with the UF Electronic Information Technology and Communication (EITC) Accessibility Policy, UF strives to ensure that all electronic information and digital content meet Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA.
Our Commitment
UF is dedicated to creating an inclusive digital environment where:
- Websites, online programs, documents and media are accessible and usable by individuals of all abilities
- Images and graphics include meaningful alternative text
- Video content includes captions and, when needed, audio descriptions
- Color contrast, typography and layout support readability for all users
- Navigation, forms and interactive components are fully operable via keyboard
- Course materials and online learning environments reflect universal design principles
- Third-party tools or platforms are evaluated for accessibility whenever possible
Our accessibility work is ongoing. UF continuously reviews and remediates digital content, trains faculty and staff and partners with campus units to ensure that new materials meet accessibility requirements.
