[quote=Anonymous]My son with ASD went to a state engineering school in the Midwest. The Midwest seemed more kind/accepting to people in the Midwest. His major was also a major that stereotypically leans ASD. The things that helped were taking part in the freshman week before school started and finding the game club. He had a great experience and made a great group of friends (unlike in HS). The things that helped him be ready for college was taking part in a weekly social skills group from 4-12th grade, being in scouts and the orchestra as well as being active in our congregation’s youth group both in our home congregation and in a district wide version of our denomination. Having those frequent social encounters helped considerably- even though he did not form close friendships. [/quote]
