For eligible students, this person can assist the student in identifying a career goal and choosing courses (along with the help of an academic advisor). He/she can work with the student to arrange for a tuition waiver or payment of fees. And with the student’s permission, the VR counselor can have contact with the Disability Support Office regarding documentation of the student’s disability. Additionally, the counselor may assist the student in securing technology to help the student to gain access to course content, increase participation in class and complete a course or program.
