Recommend a DO-IT Scholar!

Tamitha Tidwell, DO-IT Staff

DO-IT is currently recruiting ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ State high school students with disabilities who are interested in pursuing a postsecondary education. 

DO-IT Scholars prepares students for success in college and careers. The DO-IT Scholars program includes two consecutive Summer Study sessions with the ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´, where students will participate in labs and lectures with UW faculty, work on projects together, and explore campus and Seattle-area resources. This allows students to experience college life and develop their self-advocacy skills. Each Scholar is provided a laptop and any necessary assistive technology and works with a DO-IT technology specialist on setup requirements. Throughout the school year, Scholars connect with program staff, mentors, and each other. They participate in DO-IT events, complete projects, and receive valuable information and support for the transition to college.

The DO-IT Scholars program is free of charge. Please have the student apply or leave a teacher or parent recommendation . Applications are due by January 30th!
