Understanding your disability and how it impacts your learning will help you be a successful college student. When you request assistance from disability services, you may have to describe your disability and what your needs are in the classroom.

 

	Use the Internet to find out information about your disability. You may begin by visiting the Post-ITT Website. Once you are on the Post-ITT home page, select Resources. There are several websites that may be of help to you. Use a search engine to find at least one other resource that gives information on your disability. Yahoo.com, Excite.com, Google.com, and Altavista.com are commonly used search engines.
	Develop a “fact sheet” on your disability. List at least ten facts.
	Discuss what you have learned with your special education teacher, school guidance counselor, or family member.
