My daughter is a senior in HS and her top three programs of interest are Animal Science at Purdue or Cal Poly SLO or Zoology at Colorado State. She will be pre-Vet so grades will matter, and while she tests as gifted and is a hard worker her ADHD creates challenges for her. Does anyone have a student with experience in the pre-Vet track at these schools - how was the support from the university and the professors? Thanks in advance.
(She already got into CSU and is applying to the Honors program there as well. Will find out about Purdue in January and Cal Poly in the spring.)
S23 has the same profile and has been very successful in the Honors Program at CSU. The Student Disability Center has been wonderful to work with and was very willing to work with him starting from the moment he got his acceptance to make sure he had all of the documentation he needed and meetings set up. Although he meets with all of his professors at the beginning of the semester, we’ve found that most have used universal accommodations which took some stress off of him. He had one issue with a professor who was using the incorrect accommodations. S23 took care of the issue with the Disability Office and it seemed like it was an easy fix (I wasn’t involved so I don’t know details).
Please feel free to PM me and if she has any questions for the disability office I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to them (although she probably won’t hear back until after break).
