(More customer reviews)I had the opportunity to hear the authors speak at a transitions conference last year. One of the things they said that really stuck with me is that the goal is not getting your kids into college, it's getting them out (ie. having them complete a degree program and turn that into a job). This guide is a wonderful resource for LD students and parents who are in the college search process. Yes, colleges are "required" to make appropriate and reasonable accomodations, but the reality is that services vary dramatically from one college to the next. For the LD student, these services can make or break their college experience. This guide will help you learn who to talk to, what questions to ask, and what to look for in a college for the LD student.
