Miguel starts university in a week. He's decided to live at home at least until the virus is up. He has 4-5 years before he gets his master's. So there's time. His problem is he'd like to set up accommodations if he needs them and he recently switched pdoc. It's not a simple form. The dr has to note a bunch of areas whether there's no issue to severe. Miguel has little experience in a classroom. Even at community college his biggest class was 12 people but he went mostly online. Now most of his classes are 200+. Though currently he's online. He's not worried about the online classes but the in person classes he'd like to have later. Should he just wait on accommodations until he has in person classes giving the pdoc more time to know him?the dr is really impressed that he has a degree already but didn't see him through working his *** off to get it. He's mostly scared his GPA will fall below his scholarship threshold. If it does he cannot continue at that school. He's much like me where he doesn't want to inconvenience others. So this is hard for him. What accommodations are responsible for bipolar/asd/adhd? We've always done home accommodations. He worries his pdoc won't accommodate or the teachers will grade harder accommodated students.

No I think he should ask now before he needs it.

As a teacher and a person who has had learning accommodations in the past, I agree that this should be done now. One major accommodation I had was extra time to complete assignments.
