Description

This presentation will highlight the growing array of promising practices for college students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Increasing numbers of students with ASD are matriculating to college on their own cognitive and academic merits. Unfortunately, students with ASD are often poorly prepared for the college environment, and likewise, colleges are often poorly prepared to effectively support these students. We will present both original research and pilot programmatic initiatives.
