[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP: My DD also just got off the WL at VT (instate) and is seriously considering it. She has other great options but she is sort of in love with VT, while I am concerned that it is too big. I mean: it's enormous! And she has ADHD. Can anyone comment on how easy/hard it would for a humanities/social sciences kid with ADHD to make friends and manage the various logistical challenges associated with being at a huge school?[/quote] I can’t comment on the ADHD part, but as a parent of an ADHD child, can you set her up with an executive functioning coach for freshman year to make sure she stays on track? Checking in with someone virtually could be all she needs. I did go to VT and can tell you that by the time senior year rolled around, the campus felt small. It felt like I had been to every party, seen every person, done everything there was to do. (I take that to mean I made the most of my time there.). Once she gets acclimated, things won’t seem so overwhelming. [/quote]
