One in five students in the United States<\/span><\/a> experience learning disabilities, such as ADHD or dyslexia, that make learning in a traditional classroom setting difficult. Despite this common issue, college and university classrooms are still largely set up in the same teaching formats that have been used for decades\u2013powerpoint lectures, notes, homework assignments, and tests. Fortunately, many colleges have systems in place to aid and support students with learning disabilities. <\/span><\/p>\n

We rounded up 20 schools that have implemented programs for students with learning disabilities, optimizing students\u2019 potential and providing students with the resources and support they need to thrive in a college academic setting. Some of these programs are structured\/proactive programs, while others are self-directed and decentralized. The type of program that will work best for an individual depends on the way in which the student learns best.<\/span><\/p>\n

And then all students have advisors, and the thing about coaching that’s different is that’s something that a student chooses to do in addition to working with their advisor weekly.” \u2013 Ruth Wilmot, Executive Function Coach at Landmark College<\/span><\/p>\n
