Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 089: The Truth About IEPs & Accommodations in College, with Elizabeth Hamblet · 2 Jan 2018 podcast

So when it comes to learning disabilities, you know, what we would call a psychoeducational evaluation, which is, you know, generally how students are initially identified, you know, testing of their cognitive ability through any of the batteries of tests that we, you know, are available.

There are two main ones we use here in the States.

And then testing of their academic skills.

And together, that's called a psychoeducational battery.

So ADHD has the misfortune to belong to all and no one.

What I mean by that is, you know, it can be diagnosed by a variety of professionals.

And again, people say to me, well, why do some schools require testing?

My kids' high school never required it.

Again, there's no written explanation anywhere.

My way of thinking about it is especially because colleges are

We tend to be a little careful about our academic requirements and things like that.

Often students with attention deficit are asking for academic accommodations.

So to my way of thinking, you know, we need to make sure if we're going to make those accommodations that we are doing it with more than just sort of.

The pediatricians say so that he's known Elizabeth for 12 years and she certainly seems to have ADHD or, you know, after a symptom checklist, he diagnosed me with ADHD.

So, you know, at a lot of schools, it's just a letter from whoever diagnosed you or it's a form.

There are some schools that require the same testing they do for LD.

Where I currently work, we currently require that testing plus some additional testing.

So it's something, you know, when you've got, if you've got a senior right now while you're listening to this, now's the time to look online at the requirements for the schools you're students applying to and at least get a sense of it.

I always encourage parents not to do anything.

Don't spend a dime.
