Late January is often when students start to realize they missed a deadline for testing accommodations or that their schedule isn’t working the way they expected.

This is a common point in the semester where a little structure can make a big difference. Staying aware of midterms, tracking accommodation timelines, and adjusting routines early can help students feel more grounded and confident as things pick up. 📅

If your student is starting to feel the weight of the semester, you’re not alone. Support and planning can help create a smoother path forward.

Behind every college acceptance is a journey, one that often includes late nights, self-doubt, resilience, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes effort. 🎓

We understand that for students with autism and ADHD, the path forward isn’t always linear, but it is possible. With the right support, guidance, and encouragement, these students discover their strengths, build confidence, and make progress they can be proud of.

We’re honored to walk alongside them, not just at the finish line, but every step along the way. 💙

Students on the autism spectrum are five times more likely to feel isolated in college, according to the A.J. Drexel Autism Institute. That reality is exactly why we take a different approach at JJB. 💬 We work closely with families to identify schools where students won’t just enroll, but truly belong. Feeling isolated should never be part of the college experience.

For students with neurodivergent minds, choosing a college means more than academics. It means finding an environment where peer connections can form naturally, staff understand less visible needs, and independence is encouraged with the right support in place.

A thoughtful living space can ease the transition to college life. 📗

Our goal is to make sure the environment supports the student, not just academically, but personally. We work with families and consider the details that often get overlooked such as sensory preferences, routines, housing setup, social access, and comfort.

College success is more than just a transcript, it is about the experience as a whole.

💬 For students with neurodivergent minds, academic progress can’t be separated from social support, daily structure, and access to the right services. A strong GPA doesn’t mean much if a student is burned out, isolated, or overwhelmed.

We are here to help families plan for the full college experience, academics, life skills, community, and personal well-being.📘

Success looks different for every student but when families partner with JJB, 98% of our students reach their goals, whether that’s college, career, or independent living.

We’re not just guiding students through applications. We’re helping students with neurodivergent minds feel understood, supported, and capable of building a future that works for them. That means no homework, unlimited appointments, and a personalized process that puts each student’s needs first.

The right support makes all the difference.🧭📘🙌

According to the National Autism Indicators Report, only 34% of students with autism complete college, and 43% of teens with autism don’t spend time with friends outside of school or activities.

Academic success is only part of the equation. Social connection and community matter, too and many students with neurodivergent minds face invisible barriers on both fronts.

At JJB, we support the whole student with strategies that build academic progress and personal growth.

Unstructured time during winter break can feel refreshing or unsettling for students with neurodivergent minds. Hobbies offer a powerful anchor. They’re not just a way to pass time, they support emotional regulation, confidence, and independence.

I often encourage families to help students prioritize the activities they genuinely enjoy. When students feel engaged in something that reflects their interests, it strengthens self-direction and mental well-being.

Sometimes, it’s the small things such as rediscovering a forgotten hobby that help students stay grounded between semesters. 🧩🎨🍳

Holiday break can feel like a pause for some families and a pressure cooker for others. For students with autism or ADHD, the shift in routine can lead to emotional pushback, loss of momentum, or avoidance of anything college-related.😣🎓📆

At JJB, we work with families during this time to help students regroup, ease back into the process, and make meaningful progress, even if it is just one step at a time. We offer personalized steady support that meets your student where they are.

If this break hasn’t felt like a break, we’re here to help!
