Annie Tulkin's course on preparing your student with physical disabilities and health conditions for college is a well organized comprehensive course. I was so pleased when our school guidance counselor suggested we reach out to her. We had scoured the internet trying to research colleges and their accessibility services with no luck. After taking the course, we were able to create a clear path forward with suggested questions and even a few tips and tricks. This course covers everything you need to consider when sending your loved one to college whether it is near or far. Annie has been able to take away a lot of the worry and the unknown while giving us the knowledge and power to be prepared in a new exciting stage of our daughter's life.
