Many colleges require updated documentation of learning disabilities and ADHD. Early in senior year, make sure your testing is up-to-date.

AD/HD and Learning Disability Support

If you are a student with AD/HD or learning disabilities, you might be tempted to go it alone in college and avoid seeking academic support services. It is critical for students to understand that the true mark of maturity is knowing where to find resources — and then to use them.

Take charge of your education

Educational Advocates helps students find the college support programs and services that will best meet their needs — and put them on the path to academic success:

• Identify the type of support you will require. Based on your evaluations and history, we develop criteria for the academic support that you’ll need to reach your potential.
• Develop a corresponding college list. With a detailed list of colleges that meet your academic needs, you can further explore your options to find the best matches.
• Understand the process for applying. We minimize stress by helping you understand the admissions process for both the college and the academic support service, including the concept of self-disclosing.
