Diversity & Inclusion

Multicultural Student Services, through our five centers – Multicultural, LGBTQ, Latinx, Asian American, and Interfaith – provides welcoming spaces, dedicated staff, resources, and initiatives to support your success, celebrate identity, and build community.

The Veteran Student Center was created in 2021 as an on-Grounds meeting point for veteran and military-affiliated students. Here, you can build community and learn to leverage your unique experiences and perspectives during your time at UVA.

To ensure full participation in campus life for every student, Student Disability Access Center at Student Health and Wellness provides academic accommodations, support services, and advocacy throughout the UVA community.

With an emphasis on community and mentorship, Hoos First: FGLI Student Initiatives helps first-generation and limited-income students feel at home at UVA.

Your "home away from home" awaits on Dawson's Row! At the Office of African-American Affairs, you'll find social support, academic resources, and a team championing change on your behalf.

Many UVA students find themselves having to choose between affording tuition and daily essentials. If this is your experience, we're here to help. Get the healthy food and hygiene products you need, anonymously and free of charge, at food pantries on and off Grounds.

Whether you're questioning, coming out, queer, or an ally, the LGBTQ Center is here for you. We provide a welcoming and inclusive space with resources and programs that promote awareness and support for sexual and gender diversity at UVA.
