Diana Katovitch, Taishoff Center on Inclusive Higher Education at Syracuse University and the moderator is Sally Weiss, Director of Knowledge Translation for the Southeast ADA Center. Students with disabilities, including those who have intellectual and developmental disabilities, often do not know about their opportunities in higher education, what accommodations are available, and how to request them. This episode discusses what students with disabilities and their families need to know about access to higher education and the kinds of supports and services that are available to them when they enter college or university. A Resource Sheet for learning more about higher education and students with disabilities will also be posted on adalive.org after the broadcast.
