"This book fills an important need in the transition from high school to adulthood literature for students with disabilities. The strength of the text is the incredible array of teacher, student, and family resources and tools that can be used in the long-term planning and preparation for the transition to college or university for all students with disabilities."—Dr. David W. Test, Professor of Special Education and Child Development, University of North Carolina, Charlotte, USA"An important and timely contribution to the ongoing and critical discussion about creating postsecondary education opportunities for students with disabilities. From the introductory chapters on students' lived experiences and professional expectations to practical strategies colleges can put into action, this is a must read."—David R. Johnson, Ph.D., Professor and Director, Institute on Community Integration, University of Minnesota, USA"This outstanding book provides the critical detail and specificity that educators, disability support service staff, and, perhaps above all, parents and students with disabilities must have for college planning. Postsecondary education is very different than what most families and students experience in high school. There is no IEP, the accommodations may be different, and college policies operate under a different set of laws, including access to financial aid. Thousands of students with disabilities could go to college but they do not know how to navigate the challenges in accessing the postsecondary world. This handbook, the first that I am aware of, provides unique assistance in the form of tables, forms, and real life case studies, all of which are extremely reader-friendly. This book is a specific guide that will assist students in the lengthy and at times very frustrating process of transitioning to college. I highly recommend that every high school transition specialist have access to this book."—Dr. Paul Wehman, Professor, Virginia Commonwealth University, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, USA
