[nabs-l] The Next Few Years of My Life

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi, Ahbee,

I'm sure you'll hear plenty of suggestions here, but my experience of
going to college right after high school has been a pretty positive
one.  I would recommend knocking out any gen ed courses through AP
credit you can.  Though it isn't a center, I was forced in some ways
to learn and work on independence skills in cooking, cleaning, and
independent travel which have served me well while living on my own
and with roommates.  However, if you're considering Hadley, I also had
a very good experience with them.  My high school actually messed up
in a complicated situation that dealt with my schedule and IeP, but I
was able to take a Hadley course on adjustment to blindness and
satisfy the state health requirement through a course substitution.
My impression was that the courses were easy to understand and the
instructor was pretty helpful, and I enjoyed taking the class through
an independent study and online format.  Best of luck to you as you
make your decisions.  HTH.
