Georgia Perimeter College consists of 6 campuses for students to choose from: Dunwoody, Alpharetta, Clarkston, Newton, Decatur and online.

Without an existing diagnosis, the student can request an evaluation by the Center of Disability Services. The campus coordinator will determine diagnosis and eligibility. The student will be required to contact the campus coordinator every semester and request academic support, since each course has different requirements that may be affected by the student's diagnosis.
