Learning Disabilities Program

 

The Learning Disabilities Program provides comprehensive and personalized academic support services to students with professionally diagnosed learning disabilities.  For more than three decades members of Westminster College’s faculty and administration have accepted, encouraged, and supported students enrolled in the Learning Disabilities Program in their classrooms and programs. 

 

Students selected for participation in the Learning Disabilities Program (LDP) represent about five percent of the total student population at Westminster College and receive a wide array of services tailored to address their individual needs.  Services include academic advising, enrollment in LDP 101A Writer’s Workshop, extended time testing, books on tape, class notes, dictation, access to a quiet study environment, and communications with parents and members of the faculty, administration, and staff.  Services focus on providing students with the compensatory skills they need to be successful and independent learners in same academic environment pursued by regularly admitted students.
