Learning Disability Program
This program offers specialized services and instruction to students that have been identified as learning disabled. A specific learning disability is defined as a persistent condition of presumed neurological dysfunction which may also exist with other disabling conditions. This dysfunction has continued despite appropriate instruction in standard classroom situations. The college student who suspects he/she has learning disabilities should first contact the DSP office to make an appointment with the counselor and then meet with the Learning Disabilities specialist for eligibility assessment.
