[quote=Anonymous]Congrats to your ds!!! There is a Facebook group called College Accessiblilty - Accommodations and Disability Services. It is a fabulous group of parents and educators and I have learned a lot. Your son can definitely get into many colleges. Many of the people in the group will tell you to find the school first as all schools have a disability services office and are required to provide accommodations. However my son is a lot like yours (albeit with a lower gpa and act score) and we focused on schools that were known to be “disability friendly.” He was surprised by the number of choices he had. He is a current senior and has one more school to visit before he makes a final decision. You may also want to think about Landmark in Vermont which I believe is a two year program that is more of a transition program and Beacon in FL. Both focus on kids with ADHD and executive functioning issues. Beacon is a full four year college that also offers associates degrees if the kids are ready to leave after 2 years. It’s a possibility for my ds along with other 4 year schools. [/quote]
