            FEDERALLY ASSISTED POSTSECONDARY SCHOOLS

Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     We are pleased to be here today to discuss our February

1986 report on educating deaf students at federally assisted

postsecondary schools.  Our study was conducted at your request,

as a follow-up to our March 1985 report, on Gallaudet College

and the National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID).

     As you know, our 1985 report analyzed the characteristics

of students and the cost per student at the two national

schools--Gallaudet and NTID.  The report which we are discussing

today responds to your request that we compare information on

Gallaudet College and NTID to data from the four centers

participating in the Regional Postsecondary Education Program

for the Deaf.  Our recent report analyzed available data for

these schools on (1) student characteristics, (2) per student

costs, (3) student academic achievement and subsequent

employment, and (4) the schools' abilities to serve additional

deaf students.
