Struggling to focus, organise your work, or manage deadlines at university.
Many higher education students experience persistent difficulties with attention, concentration, impulsivity, or restlessness, which may be indicators of characteristics of ADHD. These challenges can significantly affect studying, exams, and independent learning at university.
A Specialist Dyslexia Assessor can carry out an assessment of characteristics of ADHD for students in higher education. Where the assessment identifies characteristics of ADHD, the report can be used as evidence to support an application for Disabled Students Allowance.
Disabled Students Allowance may provide access to practical support such as extra time in exams, specialist one-to-one study support with an ADHD-trained tutor, and assistive technology packages to help with organisation, reading, writing, and time management.
Assessments are conducted in line with current guidance and produce a clear, professional report suitable for submission to university disability services and Student Finance.
If attention and concentration difficulties are affecting university studies, an assessment may be the first step towards accessing the right support and reducing unnecessary academic pressure.
