"Can my child keep her ADHD accommodations when she goes to college? Do they even allow accommodations?" 

I answered these & other questions for students with disabilities for @additudemag.bsky.social: http://bit.ly/ADDMagart 

special education, ADHD, dyslexia, learning disabilities, college prep
Headline says "Will My Child Have an IEP in College?" Text says "Getting academic services in college is more complicated than getting an IEP or 504 plan in high school, but it's much more manageable than you may think. Here's what you should know (and do) before your teen applies to university. Image of a graduation cap and diploma. ADDitude Magazine banner.
