Abstract	The study examined students with disabilities perspectives toward their experiences in a public University in Jordan using a survey approach. The aim of this study was to take a closer look at the experiences of students with disabilities in Jordan and, in light of new legislation, to identify obstacles in the higher education system. It found that there was still much work to be done to enhance the higher education experiences for students with disabilities and identified several issues that should be addressed in order to enable access and entitlement to higher education. Recommendations and implications for future research are discussed in the context of the current disability legislation in Jordan. (As Provided).
