Great, practical, functional information to best support our students on the Spectrum, and for adjusting expectations from high school into college.

This is an invaluable resource for any parent/guardian who has an autistic child for whom college is a possibility. I will be referring to this often as my son navigates high school and prepares for college.

I didn't read this thoroughly, since my son is only in middle school, but I was very impressed by everything I did read. It covers pretty much everything that needs to be thought of and prepared for when a kid on the spectrum transitions to college. There's lots of charts, checklists, and timelines organizing the material effectively. Really excellent.
