How does Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder impact my student’s ability to be successful in college?



Many students in high school with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder have developed systems that have helped them stay organized.

We have found the most efficient way for students to adapt and develop the systems they need for successful college learning is to meet with a disability specialist until they have their adapted systems firmly in place. It often takes a very short time before the students to adapt, but they can utilize these services, if offered, for all four years.
