Abstract: This annual report provides data and analysis on enrollment, retention, graduation, and transfer for students who registered with disability services at Maryland colleges and universities. In order to gain insight into the postsecondary experiences of students with disabilities in Maryland, the Maryland Higher Education Commission (MHEC) partnered with the Maryland Department of Disabilities and the state's higher education institutions to create a survey used by colleges and universities to collect these data in aggregate form. MHEC encourages the use of these data to improve policies and practices to support the success of students with disabilities. The fiscal year 2024 findings reveal that while more students needing disability services are entering Maryland's higher education system, institutions are actively rising to meet this demand. Trend data across four-year institutions and community colleges demonstrate that students with disabilities can persist and thrive academically when provided with the appropriate support. Ultimately, with the right support, these students perform on par with their peers.
