One thing we found helpful in dealing with LD accommodation was to talk with the testing psychologist, who stays involved with students she tests, to see where those students were receiving support in college. On CC's LD board, there is a lot of scattered info on this topic. Students on the board have had great experiences with UC Berkeley and Tulane, for example, and Brown proved OK, but the student had to do a lot of self-advocacy to get what she needed. A professional who works with LD's has said very nice things about Muhlenberg, and a number of students have commented on a range of schools, including engineering programs. Take a look!

Most colleges we've looked at actually have a lot of info about their disability offices and the services they offer online, so you can also explore there. The names and qualifications of the various staff members are often listed, and the kinds of services they provide are often described in detail.
