[quote=Anonymous]Tuition gets complicated with kids on financial aid. Plus, it's not just about tuition, but the transcript as well - as I understand it, after drop/add period ends, any course withdrawal would be a W.

Also keep in mind the length of time it can take to even get an appointment with a provider, let alone find a treating solution and make headway on that path. And ruling out underlying medical stuff, which often people don't do. It all takes quite a lot of time.

Sorry OP, I have no solutions to offer. I do have a kid at a selective university struggling with various issues including anxiety and attention, major mystery physical issues underlying the situation, trying to get to the bottom. Insomnia and fatigue have been devastating. I know she isn't alone - just the other day she met someone who was struggling through last semester, ended up finding the solution (happened to be medical) over the summer, and is now doing great. Gives us hope, though there is a sense that something is off with health in this generation.

What might be nice: an easier process for a semester or year off from the university without having to fully withdraw/reapply.[/quote]
