Disability Friendly Colleges

Dec 22, 2009
"Disability-Friendly Colleges: A Guide for Students with Physical Disabilities" is an online college guide for students with physical disabilities. Frustrated by the lack of information available when beginning their college search, one Atlanta college student and his mom created this website to assist others in the search.



This guide contains interactive charts of the most disability friendly colleges and profiles of colleges which provide services necessary for students with physical disabilities to live on campus. It also contains up-to-date information including:



*Detailed descriptions and photos of four colleges providing all of the services necessary for seriously physically disabled students to live on campus

*Interactive charts of 75 colleges which go beyond ADA including: accessibility, personal care, transportation, adaptive sports, academic rank, contact information *How the Ivy League stacks up

*High school vs. college comparison

*Tips on commuting to college

*10 things students with physical disabilities should look for on a college visit

*An interactive disability-friendly college blog to help create a database of college experiences and begin a conversation on college accessibility
