Good Luck!
Gally does offer a summer camp type thing for dhh high school kids. Definitly take advantage of ANY programs like that.Colleges tend to offer some type of summer program for high school students
Actually, I think that going to a college with a strong dhh signing population or a college with a lot of dhh kids is important so you get appropraite services. It's hard to get appropreaite services if you're only one of a handful of dhh kids at a particular academic insistution.it really doesn't matter what type of college you should attend, just follow your dreams....
That's exactly what happened with me. I knew about Gallaudet. Later, I heard about RIT. After applying for RIT, I was told about NTID and I'm like, "WTF!?" I never heard of NTID. Heh!TiaraPrincess said:I always thought there was only Gally, which I knew I would never go to. I then found out about NTID/RIT and I would choose that over Gally because of diversity hearing and deaf. When you're out of the world you'll be back to meeting hearing people, so that's why there should be a combination of what's real. I never heard about CSUN, so I might check that out.
