[quote=Anonymous]I had an ADHD kid do very well in STEM at Oberlin. And do well socially. He did the full neuropsych testing and was not diagnosed ASD, but has some low grade ASD tendencies, like some level of rigidity of throuht. He was held responsible for completing 100% of his work, but the professors, especially in his major, were willing to work with him on deadlines and to spread out exams as needed, without formal accommodations. The big thing was that he had to communicate with them up front and not just fail to turn things in. There was a real environment of helping individualize things like timing of papers and a genuine desire to see him succeed. Excellent research opportunities as well. It’s obviously an especially good school if your kid is also interested in fine arts. [/quote]
