Abstract
To study barriers to higher education, this qualitative study explored the college experiences of 35 people with psychiatric disabilities. Academic performance was related to psychiatric symptoms which subsequently led to college attrition. However, many research participants showed remarkable persistence in pursuit of academic goals. Campus-based support services were rarely utilized. Implications for psychiatric rehabilitation practice are discussed.Entities:
