<p>Recently, an increasing number of students with severe disabilities are attending higher education institutions. However, support systems for such students in the majority of Japanese universities are still underdeveloped, with additional challenges such as a lack of efficient physical care and support management systems. Thus, this case study follows the experiences of a university student with cerebral palsy. Specifically, we present the issues the student faces and how they are addressed and consider possible ideas for improving the support of students with severe disabilities as a whole. It should be noted that such students must frequently communicate with those in charge of providing support (both at school and in everyday life) in order to coordinate such support while creating time for extracurricular activities. Based on the findings, support for students with severe disabilities in higher education institutions requires the development of an effective process for requesting reasonable accommodations to faculty members/faculties, which can provide the necessary support for their classes and living situations.</p>
