My DSA allowance allocated me help from NAS for study mentoring, but I am not yet able to access it. I am on study leave but have an assignment to complete which I am having real problems with and I am not allowed help from student services at university because I am on study leave. Would I be able to access one-off help from NAS to allow me to complete the work? Can anyone in receipt of such mentoring tell me if advisers can guide mentees on specific assignments if they have been designated for credit? Thanks in advance
Hello NAS71657,
I don't know if you are in Scotland or England/Wales, but the NAS Scotland Student Support Service provides specialist mentoring, in-class study assistance and study skills support for autistic students at universities and colleges across Scotland. Please check out this link: https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/professional-practice/student-support
You will find telephone and email contact on the link.
All the best,
