When you mentioned that your daughter will be navigating college with ADHD, I remembered this article from Denison’s website that I found very interesting: The Potential Awesomeness of ADHD | Wellness Center Although the article is from 2019 (when my son was a first-year and I was still reading everything on the website, LOL), it appears the Productivity Circle is still active. Also, the school just this fall opened a new Wellness Center that includes expanded mental health support: Wellness Center | Denison University (My son is a tour guide and he was excited yesterday to be giving his first tour including the new Center.) I don’t mean to be a cheerleader for Denison, but I thought this additional information might be helpful. More generally, I would recommend checking the parents’ Facebook groups for the schools your D is applying to. I am not sure at what stage various groups grant access, but I recall that the Denison group at least welcomed the parents of active applicants. These groups may be a great place to ask your questions about how effectively the schools she is looking at deal with food allergies, etc. The hype is all great on paper, but sometimes it’s good to hear it from the horse’s mouth as it were. The Denison parents FB group is actually the only one I participate in, as I hate FB generally, and it was a very helpful resource in the early stages.
