Student Resource Manual Student Resource Manual is available in PDF version. (Click here to download free version of Adobe Reader to open this file.) Moving From High School to College Students having received disability related accommodations in secondary schools will find important differences as they continue in higher education. Being aware of these differences can make the transition easier. Among the differences are: . Once a student reaches the age of 18, they will need to give written consent to the Office of Disability Services for any kind of parental involvement. Even if parents are assuming the financial responsibility for a student's education, this release is still necessary. . Secondary schools may have provided for the financial cost of securing necessary documentation of a disability. In higher education, that cost is the responsibility of the student. . The length of time documentation is valid is substantially different in higher education. . Some types of accommodations, such as study guides, that are often used in secondary education are not available at the college or university level. . The amount and type of documentation that will be needed may be different between secondary and higher education.
