Summary

This paper is about 20 studies on people with intellectual disabilities in universities in different countries.

It shows more people are getting the chance to study and work, but many people are still left out.

It explains how universities try to include people, but there are still problems like money, rules, and support.

Some of the research is written with people with intellectual disabilities, so their real voices and experiences are heard.

This research matters because it shows people with intellectual disabilities can do well, and they should be included, listened to, and given fair chances.
