Transitioning to college can be an exciting yet challenging time for students with learning differences. In this informative presentation, we’ll explore the essential supports and accommodations that colleges typically offer to help students succeed academically and socially. Attendees will learn what to look for when narrowing down college options, ensuring they choose an environment that supports their unique needs. We'll also highlight what makes Beacon College different through its tailored approach to supporting students with learning differences—and how their partnership with Palmetto Bay Academy as a Pathway School helps bridge the gap to higher education through financial support.
