And while the transition from high school to college itself can be hard enough for the average student. This transition can be especially difficult for students with learning challenges. College freshmen must cope with a relative lack of school structure, an overwhelming number of courses and options, and no daily “homework,” as was the norm in high school.

At Montgomery Educational Consulting, we focus not only on “getting in” to the right colleges. But we also care about setting up students–all students–for success once they arrive on campus. We do whatever it takes to ensure that students with learning differences find the right sorts of supports to ensure that reach their academic, personal, and professional goals.

Students with learning disabilities–and their families–must educate themselves about the additional concerns in choosing the right college. These additional steps in the transition from high school to college need not be overwhelming. They require both solid understanding of the issues, awareness of the services available at the post-secondary level, and a thorough self-assessment of the student’s needs and preferences.

To help you build your understanding and awareness. Montgomery Educational Consulting’s newest associate, Heather Creech, has created a 10 lesson “email course” for students and their families. Heather shares with you the myriad considerations in selecting an appropriate college for students with learning differences, including:

• Choosing the right location
• The types of programs available
• Why career goals are important
• Legal considerations
• Whether to divulge a learning difference on an application…and more!

Just enter your name and address below, and you’ll receive a confirmation email to verify your enrollment in this FREE email course.

Heather will share with you her expertise as an educator with deep experience in helping students of all types make the transition to post-secondary education. Our collective hope is that this information will empower students to become better self-advocates, to better understand the range of options available to students with specific learning needs, and to ensure greater success as students make this transition to post-secondary education.
