Ep 111 What to Know About Disability Accommodations in College
Episode description
Navigating the world of college disability accommodations can feel overwhelming for both students and their parents. Unlike high school, where accommodations are often guided by the school district under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), college students operate under different laws and frameworks, primarily the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. For parents, understanding how disability accommodations in college work can help you support your child’s transition and ensure they receive the necessary resources.
