This literature review examines the state of the art of services being provided to learning-disabled students within junior colleges, colleges, and universities throughout the United States. The historical and legal basis upon which these services are predicated is discussed, and guidelines designed for use by schools of higher education are provided. Chaptr.tr titles are as follows: "Legal Imperative," "Program Development," "Current Program Models," "Developing an Admissions Policy," "Aiding the Prospective LD Student," and "Adjustment to the College Environment." Three appendixes include: (1) a graph of college freshmen enrollment statistics; (2) a guideline for postsecondary learning disabilities program; and (3) a list of Mid-Atlantic colleges with learning disabilities programs.
