University applications

NAS75428 over 4 years ago

Does anyone know if ASD is a question on UCAS forms and what UK universities do to encourage/ discourage applications from students with ASD?

Just gona point out discouraging applications from ASD students would almost certainly be a crime.

That’s interesting !

what kind of software does she work with ? And how much ET?I am guessing it takes her longer to understand the question before she even gets started. And perhaps also her processing is much slower?

thanks!

She is my IT support, so I couldn't say in detail, but it included time-organisers to help with poor executive function and a microphone and software for recording and editing lectures to help with note taking. She gets an extra 25% time in exams. You will get a needs assessment, where the accommodations you requre will be ascertained, so, to an extent, each person's case will be different.
