Academic Barriers of Students with Hearing Impairment at the Undergraduate Level

    This study addresses the academic barriers of students with hearing impairment at a private institution. A competent generation depends on education; however, SWHI has particular hurdles in getting higher education. Communication, socialization, curriculum, instructions, learning, and support services are examined as significant factors in academic performance. The census-sampled research examines demographics including age, gender, and disability level in 41 SWHI. The researcher uses sign language interpreters to collect data. Quantitative investigations refine SWHI views on academic impediments. Detail frequency distributions and statistical tests like t-tests reveal demographic trends and variances. Communication, socialization, curriculum adaptability, and educational structural impediments were found. Library, internet, and assistive technology reduce academic challenges, according to the study. The research intends to influence policy-making to make SWHI higher education more accessible by illuminating these complexities.
