| Long abstract | This chapter, and those following in Part 2, synthesize existing research on higher education experiences of neurodivergent students and those with invisible disabilities in several areas. This chapter begins by describing the issues students encounter in higher education in general and with overarching systems in institutions, including their choice of institution and curriculum, their experiences with campus disability services and accommodations, and their internal and external struggles with seeking and receiving support. |
