Click here to learn more about the ranking methodology that we used to compile this list.

Congratulations! If you represent a college or university that is included in this list, please collect your seal below.

If you are an avid reader of The Edvocate and The Tech Edvocate, then you know that I spent several years as an elementary school special education teacher, and as a professor of education. Nothing gave me more pleasure as a teacher than seeing my students blossom academically, and eventually make it to college.

Unfortunately, when it comes to students with disabilities, their success is at the mercy of the university that they choose to attend. Some institutions of higher education do a fantastic job working with students with disabilities, and others do a terrible job. In this piece, I want to highlight the colleges and universities that have multiple programs, policies, and measures in place to help people with disabilities succeed in higher education. Without further ado, here are 2022’s best colleges and universities for people with disabilities.

  1. Eastern Michigan University – One of the most expensive programs on the list, the College Supports Program offers one-on-one advising in all aspects of life, including hygiene and nutrition. Annual tuition for Eastern Michigan University is under 10k, so don’t count this college out even if the price sounds high. 
  2. Fairleigh Dickinson University-Metropolitan – The COMPASS Program is designed for high-functioning students and only accepts six students per year. The program is structured, providing weekly therapy, counseling, and academic support both individually and in groups.

About Us

The Edvocate was created in 2014 to argue for shifts in education policy and organization in order to enhance the quality of education and the opportunities for learning afforded to P-20 students in America. What we envisage may not be the most straightforward or the most conventional ideas. We call for a relatively radical and certainly quite comprehensive reorganization of America’s P-20 system.

That reorganization, though, and the underlying effort, will have much to do with reviving the American education system, and reviving a national love of learning.  The Edvocate plans to be one of key architects of this revival, as it continues to advocate for education reform, equity, and innovation.
