Are you a student with Usher syndrome? Would you like to share your college experiences? Contact us here: info@usher-syndrome.org​​​​​​​

Selecting a college is not an easy decision. We attempt to narrow down our choices by creating a list of pros and cons, determining what is most important to us, tuition price, etc. However, there will always be those moments, where we say, “I wish I had known this before selecting my college.” Members of the Usher community have chosen to share important pieces of advice they wish they had received or known before choosing their college.
