Accessible Restrooms
At Saint Louis University, we're committed to fostering an inclusive environment for our community. As part of this effort, we are conducting a comprehensive audit of all SLU campus restrooms to evaluate and document accessibility features.
Our goals include:
- Identifying restrooms with automatic doors for ease of entry.
- Highlighting facilities with wheelchair-accessible stalls that meet ADA standards.
- Expanding awareness of private all-gender bathrooms for comfort and inclusivity.
This initiative will help us create a more welcoming and equitable campus, ensuring everyone has the resources to thrive. This is an ongoing project, and new buildings will be added to the list as we progress.
Viewing the Maps
You must sign in using your MySLU credentials to view campus map information. Once you log in, you can browse the list of facilities or search for a specific location.
Please note: restrooms that have been added to our accessibility features project will have a list of features marked with a 鈥淵ES鈥� or a 鈥淣O鈥� in the info section. Restrooms that do not have a yes/no on features have not yet been surveyed.
