In the past, universities did not offer equal opportunities for students with disabilities. Therefore, the principle of transitioning to higher education for students with disabilities was inscribed in legislation. This paper analyzes some legal provisions governing students with disabilities. The present study is essential for recognizing the rights of post-secondary students living with disabilities. Studying the legal provisions concerning the treatment of these learners is critical for ensuring that these provisions receive emphasis and support. Thus, this paper contributes substantially to ensuring that students with disabilities can access post-secondary education and prosper in life. The paper focuses on the possible legislation and special barriers that impede access to quality higher education for people with disabilities. Each topic is treated under the banner of policymakers. The paper examines federal laws aimed at addressing the issue of equality, especially for marginalized students with disabilities, and the options and requirements for ensuring the implementation of better systems that respect students with disabilities. The paper also concentrates on potential amendments to laws that will create more opportunities for students with disabilities. Moreover, it discusses the present accommodations, if any, to facilitate these students' smooth transition to higher education and employment. With this, it highlights special barriers that students face while undergoing their transitions and to existing program articles to make it easy for students with disabilities to access and success in higher education. The paper also touches on student financial aid, provisions for housing, and the use of assistive technology in higher education.
