2 I. ENGAGEMENT II. ESSENTIALS III.EXPECTATIONS IV. EVIDENCE V. EXPLORATION
3 I. ENGAGEMENT - Start early - Become familiar with strengths/weaknesses - Be an advocate for student and parent; a trusting relationship - Be aware of developmental needs throughout high school - Build confidence - Determine where student and parent are at relative to the disability
4 II. ESSENTIALS - Differences between high school/college regarding 504/ADA - Documentation needed to access services at college level - Update diagnostic evaluation; testing must be ADULT version and within the 18 months before the student goes to college - Checklist - DSM IV diagnosis - Accommodations through IEP/504 - History of accommodations utilized routinely -Parent, student, special education teacher/learning consultant understand diagnosis; agree on what is needed in college
5 III. EXPECTATIONS - College fit is of utmost importance - Ease of communication with professors - Support services: depth and breadth, as well as professional expertise - Student expectations: must know that he/she has to initiate access - Parents expectations: after 18, everything goes through student; Student has to sign off on allowing parents access even to the billing office! - Student life: living on campus, particularly if assistance is needed, social involvement, athletics, dietary considerations, etc.
6 IV. EVIDENCE - Guidebooks like the K&W Guide are essential although on-line information is the most up to date; must contact actual support service offices to know for sure what is and is not available - Look for college fairs that focus on profiling services for students with disabilities (e.g. College Opportunity Fair at Churchill School in St. Louis, MO) -Carefully narrow choices and plan extended campus visits -If possible, talk with other students who are using the support services on campus -Books focused on transition to college should be consulted (e.g. Survival Guide for College Students with ADHD or LD) -Self-advocacy is ESSENTIAL! - Check with vocational rehab regional center or other government programs for eligibility for financial and other support -Support services should focus on the STUDENT
7 V. EXPLORATION - Transition to college is a process - Getting the student to utilize the necessary resources is the goal - Thinking proactively is key -College is all about managing outcomes -College may take awhile; Being a college student with special needs takes TIME and ENERGY -Getting results depends on knowing how to deal with frustration -Consider working with the counseling center on campus as well as the support services
