25 The Right Match? n Structured Programs Work Best for Students Who Need Close Monitoring and High Levels of Support. n Coordinated Programs Work Best for Students Who Want to Be Mainstreamed but Know They Will Need Support. n Basic Service Programs Work Best for the Highly Motivated, Independent Self- Advocators.
26 Shaping the List and Preparing the Student l Accurately assessing the current use of support l Building independence: high school seniors should not be receiving the same support as high school freshmen l Shaping the list to have appropriate choices l The goal is a college where the student can be successful and from which the student will graduate
