Support at uni

Purple

I've just been diagnosed with autism, and I'm doing an Open University degree?  What sort of support can I ask for (exams and otherwise)? I'm already a wheelchair user.

  • What sort of thing do you find difficult in exams?

    I get to do my exams in a smaller room with less people, i get extra time because i take longer to process information, I get to leave the exam if i finish early. i can take fidgets in with me. But if you speak to someone in charge of disability at the university they will be able to tell you what they offer.

    Congrats on the diagnosis
