[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD has a diagnosed math LD and IEP.  Other subjects on grade level. Some EF issues and major test anxiety (mostly math but doesn’t do great in general under pressure or in a timed activity like standardized tests). Is there any hope or way to help her get into a mainstream 4 year college? Grades except math are Bs but math (no matter how hard she tries, tutoring, extra help, accommodations) Ds and at best a C. It’s a constant struggle and honestly less emphasis on math would probably result in better grades in other subjects. DD is not going into a STEM field - both her thing and never has been. We are entering 10th and getting worried community college will be the only option even thought she really wants a traditional 4 year experience. Any thoughts on what to do?[/quote]

There are schools where as long as you have a 2.5 GPA, you get in. I am a professor at UDC and this is our admission standard. I doubt you would consider this school as the traditional 4-year experience but it’s also not community college. You can get a good education at almost any college or university if you pick your classes carefully.[/quote]
