The Mourning Meeting: Season 3, Episode 5
Going to College with a Disability:
What you Should Know
Annie Tulkin is the founder of Accessible College, an organization dedicated to supporting students with all abilities have access to college. In this episode, we talk about why students need to learn to advocate for themselves differently in college, and how to do that. We discuss ways to find out what accommodations are available at each college and ways to distinguish quality disability services at each school. We also talk specifically about grieving college students, who are not disabled but may need some accommodations or accommodations for some time. Annie and I also explore what to think about when trying to access different kinds of support, like transportation, insurance and staffing.
