Accommodative colleges in California for students with ADHD?

I have ADHD and I'm looking for colleges in California that are known for being accommodating to students with similar conditions. Can anyone give me some advice or recommendations?

Absolutely, many colleges in California have strong resources for students with ADHD. Here are a few options:

1. University of Southern California (USC): USC's Kortschak Center for Learning and Creativity specifically supports students with ADHD and learning differences. The center provides academic and support services like individualized instruction and assistive technology tools.

2. University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA): The Center for Accessible Education at UCLA offers accommodations such as extended time on tests and priority enrollment for disabled students. They also have an excellent Disability Studies minor.

3. Stanford University: The Office of Accessible Education at Stanford offers a variety of accommodations including note-taking, testing accommodations, and priority housing selection.

4. Pomona College: This liberal arts college offers comprehensive assistance through their Office of Accessibility Resources and Services, like tutoring, advising, and support in developing self-advocacy skills.

5. California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly): Their Disability Resource Center provides services like note-taking assistance, extended test time, reduced distraction test environment, etc.

Remember to visit their websites and reach out to these offices directly to discuss your individual needs and learn more about their offerings. While these universities have strong resources, it's important to find a college that you like for reasons beyond just accommodations. Finally, the college selection process should also factor in the school's academic offerings, environment, culture, and financial aid availability. Good luck with your college search!
