Supports for College Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Views of Postsecondary Practitioners and Faculty Regarding Autism Spectrum Disorder Student Service Provision
Susan B. Jenkins
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, The University of Mississippi
Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are matriculating to higher education at growing rates and are now believed to make up roughly one to two percent of the postsecondary student population (Cox & South, 2017; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as cited in Gobbo & Shmulsky, 2013). Service provision for college students with ASD typically falls under the oversight of student disability services practitioners who provide guidance to faculty and staff regarding accommodations. The professionals who carry out ASD service delivery are a source of expertise, insight and understanding regarding recommended supports for students on the spectrum. This study was designed to provide practitioners with the opportunity to share their experiences and discuss ways to enhance ASD supports in higher education.
