Our Commitment
The University of New Mexico is committed to providing a digital environment that is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities.
Our mission is to ensure that all campus members—students, faculty, staff, and visitors—have equal access to university programs, services, and activities delivered through our websites, software, and digital content. We strive to meet and exceed WCAG 2.1/2.2 Level AA standards, ensuring institutional equity and student success.
