Ask your univistiy they will have a department who support students with disabilities. Or contact your local dylexica action center. If you are still in college they may be able to help. Good luck with university I found uni to be the place I had the most help for my dylexica.

Hope that helps.

Hi , my 18 year old son needed one of these assessments and we had it done just before Christmas. If you google specialist teachers in your area, or check out the British Dyslexia Associationbdadyslexia.org.uk/dyslexic...

You should find help in getting in touch with a local assessor. Please be aware that we had to shop around as assessors charged between £175 and £300 to undertake this assessment, but worth it if you get the help you need and deserve.

Not what you're looking for?
