Specifically what type of support does your child need? There is a huge range of levels of support at colleges including some colleges that are geared specifically for LD students (ex. Landmark) who need a great deal of support, to mainstream colleges that have special LD programs (ex SALT program at UArizona)., to colleges with Office of Disabilities (other colleges).
This might be a good place to read up.

Thanks- I did stumble across both U of Arizona and Landmark…probably will order a copy of that book as well!
Specifically looking along east coast…
Seconding UArizona & Landmark.
Also, University of Connecticut’s BOLD program is geared to students with learning disabilities.
