Colleges for Students with Learning
Disabilities or AD/HD by Petersons
"Program" Or "Services" ???
Expanded and freshly updated, Colleges for Students with Learning
Disabilities or ADD is a great resource for students searching for a college
that will provide them with the programs they need. Although more than
700 colleges offer programs specifically for students with learning
disabilities, few books offer detailed information about the services that
these schools offer.
Personal Review: Colleges for Students with Learning
Disabilities or AD/HD by Petersons
If you are considering buying this book then you are likely a parent with a
child with a learning disability. I am a parent of a child with a learning
disability. I have found that I MUST advocate for my child. Entering
College as a Freshman is another life transition. These life transitions can
be so very difficult for these students. What makes this book valuable is

that the book organizes those schools that have "Structured/Proactive
Programs". It lists detailed information such as number of staff supporting
the program, number of students enrolled, orientation, diagnostic testing,
tutoring, written policies. I did not find this kind of organization or these
details on the college internet sites. These "Structured/Proactive
Programs" are programs that students with IEPs will need. "Services" will
simply not be enough because "Services" require the student to seek them
out. Many students with learning disabilities entering college have not yet
developed the maturity to be an advocate for themselves. Hence, the
need for a "Program". These programs have additional fees indicating that
they provide additional services not provided for students without a
disability.
