Finding University Supports



As ADHD can be classified as a disability, you may be able to avail of academic and exam supports.

The easiest way to find these supports is by googling 'name of university/college and disability support’.

You will likely need to supply evidence of disability from a healthcare professional. Make sure to get in touch with the university/college's office to see what exactly they need as evidence.

Many of the Students' Unions have Disability Rights Officers as well
