Greetings,

I have a student with a recent onset of tinnitus working towards a college transition. I'm wondering what accommodations others have seen/offered for tinnitus.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Latoya, interesting question!  I'm curious about this as well since my understanding of tinnitus was it was ringing in the ears. What are some of the barriers that the student is experiencing?

Greetings Kathy, 

This is a general question to all on the forum to see if they have experience with this type of situation. I am curious to see what others have done in a similar situation.
