There are no IEPs in college. Although the IEPs do not follow the students into higher education, there are
still accommodations and assistive technologies that are available for students
to use during classes, testing situations and when completing assignments. Under
Section 504 and the ADA, colleges must provide reasonable accommodations
to make their program accessible to students with disabilities and no cost to
the student.
Some examples of accommodations
available to college students with disabilities include:
- Computers
- Portable note taker
- Sign language interpreters
- Assistive listening system
- Extended time
- Alternate forms of text
- Use of a calculator
- Text-to-speech software
- Audio books
- Screen magnification applications
- Graphic organizer applications
- Providing a telecommunication
device for the deaf (TTY)
