The main building of the Academy at Schillerplatz has two main entrances due to different physical disability needs.

- For persons with walking disabilities: the historic staircase is equipped with additional handrails.
- For persons with limited mobility: a sign leads from Schillerplatz entrance to the barrier-free Makartgasse entrance.
Entrance Makartgasse:
- For persons with limited mobility: via an intercom system (stele on the left) you reach the porter, who opens the automatic gate.
- In the passage, a ramp on the left side reaches the large automatic entrance door, which can be opened with a button to the right of the door.
- From there (Souterrain) you can reach the elevator for access to the other floors. The porter is located on the ground floor.
- Opening hours entrance Makartgasse: from 8 to 20 h.
The "Sitzungssaal" (E 1) is located on the ground floor. When entering via the Schillerplatz entrance, the room in the building is accessible at ground level.
