ACCESSIBILITY SUPPORTS IN POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION

In an ongoing effort to facilitate a successful transition to college/polytechnic/university for grade 12 students who are currently receiving Special Education support, Student Services has developed the Accessibility Supports in Post-Secondary Education online module. This module provides students and their parents/guardians with step-by-step guidance on registering for and navigating accessibility supports at the post-secondary level. 

Module topics include:

• Special Education supports in high school vs Accessibility supports in post-secondary;

• Exploring and comparing Accessibility supports offered at various post-secondary institutions;

• Registering for Accessibility supports (i.e., process, required documentation, timelines);  and

• Financial assistance for students with disabilities (i.e., bursaries and scholarships).
