Abstract
Purpose – The number of students with disabilities pursuing a college education has increased dramatically
in recent years (Hall and Belch, 2000; Hitchings et al., 2011; Horn et al., 2006; Retish and Horvath, 2005; Snyder
et al., 2016; Stodden et al., 2001), yet, evidence suggests that these students continue to encounter significant
challenges and barriers that may have a dramatic effect on their college experience (Madaus and Shaw, 2006;
Sniatecki et al., 2015; Stodden et al., 2001). The paper aims to discuss this issue.
Design/methodology/approach – Positive experiences and aspects of being a college student with a
disability have not garnered as much consideration and have received little attention in the professional
literature to date. The current study sought to address this gap through examination of positive aspects of
disability among 12 undergraduate students. Data were gathered via qualitative interviews.
Findings – Results included five distinct themes related to students’ experiences: personal growth and selfacceptance;
empathy/understanding; advocacy and teaching others; unique relationship experiences and
opportunities; and drive/determination/perseverance.
Research limitations/implications – The implications of these themes and future directions for research
on positive aspects of disability are also addressed.
Originality/value – The results of this study provide support for the social model of disability as a lens to
view individuals with disabilities as complete people who, with their impairments, can and do go on to lead
positive and meaningful lives.
