A topic that has very little research exploring it is the experiences of LGBTQ+ autistic college students. This is a topic that very few researchers have explored and there is little research on this area. However, we do know some things about this topic.

Autistic college students frequently experience a dilemma of weather or not to disclose their experiences to others. This can cause barriers in accessing services and getting support. Students sometimes conceal their identities in order to conform with society.

On college campuses, research shows that there is ableism in the LGBTQ+ community and heterosexism in the disability community, making it difficult for autistic students to fit in.

Autistic LGBTQ+ students have more suicide attempts and mental health concerns than the general college student population, and also have less access to healthcare services. Students may be scared to disclose their identity to healthcare providers for fear of stigma and discrimination.
