Uni won't help me get a diagnosis - help?

stranger

So, it says on the open university website that they'll help pay for an assessment via the access to learning fund. I have been told no and have been told to go back to my GP and comtact NAS. I've done the former 3 times and have got nowhere.

They don't seem to understand that I'm now going to have to drop out.

  • The no was from disability services and the finance team in regards to the access to learning fund.

    I've not made any requests yet; but I know I'm going to have to do that. I've got no proof that I'm Autistic. My paperwork from CMHT says I might have it, which means nothing. I know I've got it; but I've got nothing in writing to state this.

    Dropping out would be due to the lack of support, etc. Tutorials are inaccessible now, too. (that's thanks to certain students; so will take it up with my tutor)
