#78 How to Prepare for College Disability Accommodations

College, Disabilities, and Success

There is a world of difference between disability accommodations in the K-12 system and disability accommodations in the postsecondary system. Today's episode addresses some of those differences in accommodations that parents and teachers need to be aware of when students with disabilities plan for college. Just because your child or student had a specific accommodation in high school does not mean they will get the same accommodation in college. You will also be able to download a tip sheet put out by Learning Ally that shares many examples of common accommodations for K-12 students with dyslexia. I used the tip sheet to show how many of the accommodations your child might have in K-12 for reading, spelling, writing, math, homework, and testing that may not apply to college.
