adhd son starting college in fall, advice?

If possible, you should make sure his medication dose is optimized before he leaves for school. My niece’s medication needs to be tweaked every 2-3 years, it seems.

You might want to look into coaching–I believe both the Edge Foundation in Seattle and SALT at U of A coach long distance–these kids are so used to Skype/iChat that it is more familiar to them than being in a room with a coach. Having a neutral party coach him may help him respond to all the same good ideas you have fed him over the years :slight_smile:

The disabilities office will set-up accommodations, but they don’t usually coach, or check-up on a kid who isn’t using them.

Best of luck!
