Supporting Transfer Opportunities for Dually Enrolled Students with Intellectual Disability and Autism

This Insight Brief #38 provides dual enrollment staff, specifically college coordinators and transition specialists, an overview of effective transfer practices and policies between sending and receiving institutions to support students with intellectual disability and autism. These practices include advising, orienting, and support services, as well as providing opportunities for academic and social integration. Building ongoing relationships with transfer destination partners will be key to developing successful transfer programs.
