Students on the Autism Spectrum or with varying learning differences are applying and getting accepted into colleges more than ever before. Unfortunately, getting accepted is only the beginning of an often frustrating and challenging path to the completion of an academic degree.

In this webinar, you will learn:
- How to develop a realistic college plan for your student
- Soft skills necessary for academic success
