[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't use it as the focus of the piece, just write about it as aspect of his identity, the way I would write about my heritage or similar. Don't hide it, but use the essay as an opportunity to tell a very compelling story they have not heard before. His autism/adhd/anxiety is part of who he is - not his defining trait. I think key for his applications will also be the Why Us supplements - he sounds like he would be an excellent part of any community, so have him make the case for why he specifically belongs in each particular school and how he would thrive there. Too often people assume that folks with his dx are insular. Good luck to him![/quote]
