[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is doing ok in community college and a transfer to 4 year a disaster?[/quote] No but why can't kids with LDs have the same opportunities? Many work as hard if not harder but grades don't reflect this.[/quote] I agree that there are 4 year schools that will accept her, but I also can endorse CC and transfer which we did with my EF challenged, ADHD, slow processing speed DD. Getting her used to the pace of college courses without having to also manage the social dynamic and all the complications of learning to live on her own was a really great choice for her. I have seen so many kids who were not ready go off to 4 year colleges for the “experience” and then end up not succeeding. You know what will work best for your DD but I wanted to put it out there that CC to 4 year school is not a consolation prize. It’s a great option for many kids.[/quote]
