Transition to University

Marty

Hi, my son has AS, dyslexia & dyspraxia but has survived school & college and has secured a place at Southampton Solent University this September - his first time living away from home.

So far the University has been really supportive and I hope everything will work out ok.  However I'd be really interested to hear from either parents of other young people with Aspergers, or the students themselves, on the dos and don'ts of transition to University.

We'd also be really interested if your son/daughter, or you if you're the student, are either currently at, or are off to, Southampton Solent this year.

Thanks.

  • Thanks Hope.  Unfortunately my son was unable to get a place at our local university, but more importantly he preferred the other university and felt that it was a better course.  As you say, the University is already being very supportive, which is a huge help.

    I hope you've been able to find work now you have graduated.
