Recommended Accommodations for College Students with ADHD

Resource Details

The transition from high school to college is a critical and sensitive stage, especially for those with ADHD. College students with ADHD face many challenges in the new college community with more distraction, less external structure, more responsibilities, and new friends and teachers. While pre-college educational systems allocate resources, both formal and information, to provide well-tailored educational services, students in college have to rely upon their own skills, support, and resources to a much greater degree. It is exceedingly important that college students learn to advocate for themselves and seek out support to ensure success in the classroom and beyond.
