Learning disabilities questions

[KayV]

If you need disability accommodations, you should start by looking up the disability services office at the school in question to see what services are available for you. College is different from high school in that you are no longer guaranteed success in your academic goals as with an IEP; rather, you are granted *equal access* to academics, but not necessarily success in those endeavors. For example, if I wanted to attend an actual in-person class, I would contact disability services to make sure that the classroom/ building in question were wheelchair accessible. If I did not do this, it would be too bad for me if the classroom were up two flights of stairs in a building without an elevator.

That being said, some schools (like Texas Tech) have special programs for students who had IEPs in high school. Here are some helpful links about IEP vs. ADA from TTU:
