Hi,

 

I am new to the group.  I work with international students who are
interested in going to university in the United States.  In this
position, I work with students who have various obstacles to overcome,
the most common being financial.

 

Recently, I started working with someone who is completely blind.  The
young man completed high school last year and wants to continue his
studies in the U.S.  Do any of you have any recommendations on which
colleges and universities are more accessible and accommodating to the
blind?  He wants to major in political science or international
relations.

 

Thanks in advance.
