This article describes the results of a series of focus group interviews conducted with postsecondary students with disabilities about the importance of self-determination in their success in those settings. Approximately 40% of the student participants identified a learning disability or attention deficit disorder as their primary disability. The results discussed in the article are the thoughts and comments of these students that were extracted from the focus group results. Participants attended community college and/or state universities in Virginia and indicated that self-determination skills were important to their success in taking courses, finding the supports they needed, and advocating for their rights. Implications for supports for students with disabilities in postsecondary settings, as well as those K-12 students who are planning to transition to postsecondary educational settings, are discussed.principles considered nonnegotiable in NCLB.
