[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD was diagnosed with ADHD (inattentive type) very late (in 9th grade). With an IEP and medication, she has done exceptionally well in high school. But next year, she is heading to college, and I am trying to figure out if she needs another (expensive!) neuropsych exam. Any experience with the transition from HS to college? Do the accommodations carry over? TIA! [/quote] No the accommodations don't just carry over, but yes, she is entitled to accommodations in college so she can access her classes and her college environment. Every college is different as to what they require for documentation. Some will require a recent neuropsych exam. Others may accept a letter from her treating psychiatrist or the IEP as documentation. Check with the college your daughter plans to attend to see what their requirements are. [/quote]
