Finding the best colleges for students with autism benefits both their guardians and,<\/strong> more so, the students themselves.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

College is a thrilling experience but can easily be very tasking and demanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making the transition into college a challenge to surmount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For students with autism, college is more than just an academic challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They would have to learn to live independently, stay organized, make new friends, and try to enjoy campus life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students with autism benefit greatly from personal, academic, and social support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, special education services end by age 21 or 22 for many students, depending on the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This deprives them of the previously provided “total support” and “accommodation” for schooling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than half of young adults with autism don’t attend college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the 35 percent that later try to, they mostly don’t get admitted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if they do, they often drop out and do not finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, there are several universities in the country with programs to help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, in this post, we’ve compiled a list of the best colleges for students with autism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
