<p><span style="color:black">Hi </span>Vanessa<span style="color:black">,<br>
<br>
Students with visual impairments face a unique set of challenges transitioning to college life, from accessing materials to finding a social scene. While Student Services offices can be a great help, we wanted to provide a central source of information and
resources for visually impaired college students, completely free of charge. It's available here: </span><a href="http://www.onlinecolleges.net/for-students/college-accessibility-visually-impaired-students/">http://www.onlinecolleges.net/for-students/college-accessibility-visually-impaired-students/</a><br>
<br>
Our resource addresses visually impaired students' most common concerns, including:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">
School resources and legal rights as a student with a disability<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">
Scholarships available only to blind and visually impaired students<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">
Assistive technologies for students with visual impairments<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p>At <a href="http://onlinecolleges.net">OnlineColleges.net</a>, we strive to make our site accessible to all visitors by, among other best practices, creating a clear site structure and navigation, using differentiated title and text styles and sizes, and separating stylistic elements from site
copy to make the site compatible with assistive technologies.<br>
<br>
<strong>Please help us reach as many students as possible by sharing a link to our guide on your site.</strong> I suggest this page: <a href="http://kycap.ky.gov/links.htm" target="_blank">http://kycap.ky.gov/links.htm</a><br>
<br>
<span style="color:black">Let me know how you plan to share this resource, or if you have any questions. We welcome all feedback.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="color:black">Looking forward to hearing from you,</span><br>
