<p>I suspect there are many with ASD. Does anyone have experience with successes or failures of aspies at RPI?</p>
<p>My son is very high functioning but has his gaps. Is their disability office very helpful?</p>
<p>Thx</p>
<p>I can’t comment on the disabilities office specifically, but I can tell you that every interaction I’ve had with any office/person at RPI has been positive, and they often go above and beyond what I expect.
My son is a freshman. At the end of April, 2 choices were left. I considered RPI the better choice, and among the reasons was their willingness to get back with you promptly, and/or often getting someone on the line the first time you call.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>The disabilities office is indeed wonderful, I have never heard anything negative about how they treat students. Additionally, Dean Smith is an awesome guy who works very well with students.</p>
<p>Thank you. We will be visiong for accepted students day on April 13. I think DS needs to appreciate the value of self advocating as well! As long as there is an open ear, he needs to learn how to reach out.</p>
