 I imagine that your girlfriend is going to college so that she will be able
 to go to work.  That distinction said,  she should contact the Dept. of
 Rehabilitative Services in the state where she resides.  The state
 vocational rehabilitation agency helps people with disabilities who want to
 go to work.  In brief,  one has to be eligible based on existence of a
 disability and the disability being the barrier to employment and the person
 being able to benefit from DRS services or needing DRS services to become
 successful in employment. DRS services are many and varied and determined by
 each individual's needs.  College,  personal assistance services,  referral
 and information about housing,  accommodations in school or the work place
 are all possibilities.  Good luck.  I work at DRS in VA if you need more
 information,  I would be glad to try to provide it.  Lynn
