20 世纪 90 年代，大量儿童被诊断患有自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD)，现在已接近上大学的年龄。通过早期诊断和干预，这些儿童中的许多人现在能够考虑接受高等教育。然而，这些学生需要特定的干预和支持才能取得成功。本文回顾了自闭症谱系障碍的分类学、为自闭症谱系学生提供住宿的法律依据以及自闭症谱系障碍的发病率和患病率。作者针对自闭症谱系大学生的学术、独立生活、社会、职业和咨询需求提供了具体建议。通过精心计划的过渡、适当的住宿和支持，自闭症谱系障碍学生可以在大学学业和社交方面取得成功。
In the 1990's a surge of children were diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and are now approaching college age. Through early diagnosis and intervention many of these children are now able to consider post secondary education. However, these students will need specific interventions and supports in order to be successful. This article reviews the nosology of ASDs, the legal basis for providing accommodations to students on the autism spectrum, and the incidence and prevalence of ASDs. The authors provide specific recommendations regarding the academic, independent living, social, vocational and counseling needs of college students who are on the autism spectrum. With a carefully planned transition, appropriate accommodations, and support, ASD students can be successful academically and socially in college.
