College Students with Disabilities: Your Guide to Campus Accommodations and Support Services
In K–12, schools come to you. Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) are built by teams, delivered automatically, and legally required. In college, the rules change entirely. You become your own advocate. No one will track you down to ask whether you need support — you must seek it out, register for it, and communicate your needs. That shift can feel overwhelming, but it does not have to be.
This guide walks students with disabilities — and the families who support them — through every step of navigating college accommodations: understanding your legal rights, registering with Disability Services, knowing what documentation to bring, and making the most of the support available on campus. Whether you are heading to a four-year university, a community college, or a vocational program, the information below applies to you.
