This article shows the results of the study about the attitudes of students without disability have towards their classmates with some type of disability, within the research project System of Information for Population with some Disability (SIDIS Project). The population studied included students without disabilities from the following Schools and Programs: School of Basic Sciences, Technology and Engineering (Systems Engineering, Industrial Engineering); School of Administrative, Economic, Accountant and Business Sciences (Business Administration); School of Agricultural, Cattle and Environmental Sciences (Zootecnnics, Environmental Engineering, Agronomy, Agroforestry Engineering); School of Educational Sciences (Bachelor in English); School of Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities (Psychology, Social Communication), belonging to Ibagué Regional Center (CEAD) from Open and Distance National University - UNAD, Colombia.
The attitude found in this study was overall favorable. However this can not be generalized to all UNAD regional centers, neither to the whole student population without disability from the regional center due to this study is just an approach to the attitudes from students who have classmates with limitation.
