Help for College Students with Learning Problems
Dear College Student,
Are you having trouble following lectures or finishing assignments in college?
Do you find that you take much longer to finish your work than you classmates do?
Have you been told that you struggle with comprehension or writing assignments?
It could be that you have a learning disability!
College should be an exciting time for any incoming student, yet for those with learning disabilities it can create anxiety. Engaging with new faculty and classmates while also taking on more difficult coursework can be overwhelming if students don't have the proper supports.
According to the latest data provided by the National Center for Education Statistics(2014) more than 200,000 students entering college have some type of learning disability. Although most learning disabilities are identified early in life, it’s possible to discover that you have one in college.
