For some autistic individuals, the idea of operating in the social environment of a college classroom can be debilitating as to derail the pursuit of higher education at all. For those who do enroll, their condition can make it difficult to succeed in a traditional classroom setting. However, in recent years, more colleges and universities offer support in the way of curriculum and funding to students seeking the college experience, certificates, degrees and advanced degrees.
