Making the Transition to Higher Education

Opportunities for Student Empowerment

Loring C. Brinckerhoff

Loring C. Brinckerhoff is a director of learning disabilities support services at Boston University. Address: Loring C. Brinckerhoff, LD Support Services, Boston University, 19 Deerfield St., Boston, MA 02215.

This article focuses on the transition process for high school students with learning disabilities as they move from secondary to postsecondary settings. The role of the student will be examined as it relates to the transition process, including participating in the transition planning team, selecting high school classes, searching for the best postsecondary option, and enrolling in either a 2- or 4-year college. By being actively involved in the transition process from the beginning, students can become informed consumers about their options and rights under law. Practical suggestions for high school service providers, teachers, and parents are included as they relate to supporting students in this process.
