Objective: The objective of this scoping review is to identify strategies in the literature that may increase the accessibility of health professional programs for students with disabilities.

However, since students with disabilities experience barriers to education, their retention rates are potentially lower and their attrition rates are potentially higher compared with their non-disabled peers.
