Accessibility Statement
1. Our Commitment
Valencia Educational Consulting, Inc. is committed to making our website usable for as many people as possible, including visitors with disabilities. Planning for college is already a lot to navigate, and we want the experience of using our site to feel clear and calm for everyone who comes here.
Accessibility is an ongoing effort rather than a one-time task, and we work to improve over time.
2. Conformance Goal
We aim to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These guidelines describe how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, motor, auditory, and cognitive differences.
We consider the site to be partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 AA, which means that while we work toward the standard, some portions of the site may not yet fully meet it. We are committed to continuing to close those gaps.
3. Accessibility Tools on This Site
To help you tailor your experience, our site includes an accessibility menu, opened from the compass icon in the lower corner of the page. The available options include:
- Larger text
- A higher-contrast color theme
- Highlighted links
- A larger cursor
- A simplified reading font with added letter and word spacing
- A reading focus mode
- A reading mask
- A bolded-reading aid for the start of each word
- An option to reduce on-screen motion and animation
Your selections are remembered on your device for future visits, and you can turn any of them off or reset them all at any time.
These tools are offered as a convenience to help you adjust the page. They are not a replacement for your own assistive technology, and they do not collect or transmit any personal information.
4. Working With Your Own Assistive Technology
We aim to keep our site compatible with current versions of major browsers and with common assistive technologies, such as screen readers and operating-system accessibility settings. If you already use your own accessibility tools, those remain the most reliable way to tailor the web to your needs, and the options above are meant to work alongside them.
5. Known Limitations
Despite our efforts, some areas of the site may not yet be fully accessible. Known limitations include:
- Some interactive features may be easier to use with a mouse than with a keyboard or touch screen.
- Content provided by third parties or embedded from other services may not always meet the same standard.
Where any feature creates a barrier for you, please reach out using the contact details below, and we will help you get the information or service you need.
6. Feedback and Help
We welcome your feedback, and we treat accessibility barriers as a priority. If you have difficulty using any part of our site, or if you need information or a service in a different format, please contact us:

7. Ongoing Review
We review the accessibility of our site as it changes and as our content grows. This statement will be updated as we make improvements, and we will revise the Effective Date above when we do.
