Transition Plan to University

Other Considerations

Remind the student of the planning and self- advocacy skills that the student has developed throughout their time in high school, and to use these throughout their time in post-secondary education.

Support Staff

Discuss the options for help that the student has available with them, focusing on Accessibility services and the Writing Centre, and how to gain access to them.

A copy of a recent diagnostic report (three years or less) which states the nature of the disability, symptoms and difficulties experienced, recommended accommodations/strategies is the mandatory requirement for a student with ADHD at the University of Toronto is one possible example of additional documentation that accompanies the original IEP from high school. Parents, along with the student in question, must ensure all documentation for their respective special need is current upon submission in order to gain access to Accessibility Services on entry to the University.

Discuss what university will be like for the student, focusing on the university teaching and learning process to best prepare them

Ensure that the students IEP and IPRC information is both accessible and up to date to help make the students transition to university easier.
