accommodations i’ve had approved as an autistic college student

helloooo today i finally had a meeting with the disability office and have accommodations after 2 years of being in college without them. im autistic and have cptsd/dissociative issues and had a hard time finding what was even available to me to request for accommodations so i wanted to make a list to help anyone else who might be having trouble.

• Priority registration

i get to register for classes earlier each term to make sure i can create schedules that’ll work for my routine

• Extended time on assignments

self explanatory i think? was also offered extended time on tests or a separate room to take them but testing isnt where i struggle

• Flexible attendance

as long as i email beforehand i dont have to stick as strictly to professors attendance policies

• Alternative formats

if i buy a physical textbook i can request the ebook/pdf/audiobook for free to have multiple methods of studying depending on what works for me on a given day

• Note taking

allowed to audio record class and send to a service called messenger pigeon who will give me a transcript of the class and professional notes based on it

• Access to lecture notes

able to access professors lecture notes prior to class/instruction

• Devices

allowed to have phone/ipad/laptop for social buffering and notes in classes that may have policies against electronics

• Flexible participation

no cold calling, option to work alone for group projects/assignments, not required to present in front of class

if anyone has any questions lmk these are just what i have been able to get at my school so far! hope it helps

edit: this is blowing up so fellow autistics, students, language nerds, etc pls be my mutual i want friends lol my dms are also open any time !!

Hello! I made these this morning and thought I'd share. You can print these or use them as inspiration for your bullet journal-- whatever works for you. I made one daily cleaning checklist with suggestions and one without. Enjoy :0

I originally made these for myself (since it's easier to remember if I have something I have to physically "check" off) but realized it wouldn't hurt to share.

btw if you’re starting college this week everyone else is also nervous about making friends. everyone feels lonely and out of place. and everyone thinks that everyone else is doing a better job than they are.

it’s a weird life transition & you’re doing a good job.

yellow hard shell charger case from London Graphic Centre

special edition totebag from London Review of Books

gallimard journal from Choosing Keeping

brass hand clip from Choosing Keeping (honestly my fave purchase on this trip !!)

vintage bus blind journal from Choosing Keeping

kaweco perkeo fountain pen and inks from Present & Correct

🍋 adulting diaries // how i'm learning to love my life again ⛅

these aren't things that you just do once and then you're done — you'll never feel trapped or lonely or insecure ever again. life happens, we get waylaid. so gently remind yourself too, "again and again and again, i will come back to love" 💛

🪟 listen to your body

✨ it's really difficult to get to a good place emotionally without getting to a good place physically, which isn't to say it's impossible, there are just some ways you can make things a little easier for yourself:

sleep early (at least before midnight) 💤

don't stay in bed if you're awake — get up and start your day slowly opening your mind to new possibilities 😌

don't just go through the motions of your personal grooming — look yourself in the mirror and appreciate the details only you possess 😍

eat breakfast!!! don't start your day hangry or... sangry? (what's the word for sad and hungry?)

🤝 do something you're interested in with other people

✨ even if you don't have time for your hobbies during the week, "interest" can also be defined as "having a vested interest in" and this mindset shift alone can work wonders.

attend focus groups or town halls to participate in improving the quality of life at your institution, company, department, and/or neighborhood

if no such meeting exists, take the initiative to gather a group of friends/colleagues to hang or even hash out a collective issue

the point is to engage socially (giving good reactions to others more extroverted than yourself is also engaging!) to give yourself an opportunity to feel like part of a community

💝 invest in yourself

✨ the more time and effort you put into something the more you come to value it. this is the psychology of commitment, so why not commit to yourself?

do a workout that makes you feel strong, powerful, and healthy 💪

gain clarity by journaling, talking to a therapist or someone you trust, or meditating

advocate for yourself — put yourself up for a promotion/award/job opportunity, go to an event and introduce yourself to new people, and in doing so, remember that other people's reaction to you doesn't matter half as much as the fact that YOU see the value in yourself enough to put yourself forward

nourish your mind — read a book, learn a new skill or practice an old one, be observant of others and your surroundings

💌: i hope these help you as they've helped me 💐 how do you show love to yourself and your life?

whenever i feel bad about needing more rest than others (even on a good day), i just remember that albert einstein slept 10h every night and took daily naps.

SMART goals for today: (i have to keep using the acronym to remind myself to keep things achievable lol...and sometimes i still have to edit some tasks throughout the day. it's not a failure, i'm still learning what "achievable" even is.)

morning routine ✅

physio exercises ✅

finish psyc ch 3/4 from last week ✅

finish psyc ch 4/4 from last week (i am sooooo close to being done w/ this, but i'm so tired. gotta listen to my body and get ready to sleep)

finish phil reading asst for this week ✅

work on phil quiz ✅ (answered from memory but i still have to check the readings)

skincare ✅

night routine ✅

wind down for 30 mins before sleeping with the light on (e.g. spacing out/meditate/journal/yoga/dealing with the things that distracted me while studying) ✅ (i wanted to meditate for 30 mins straight - i could not. while meditating, i was constantly reminded of things i didn't do yet and thoughts i wanted to get down that i kept stopping and starting the timer bc either these things have been bothering me for a while or i thought it was an important observation and it's now well over the 30 mins of winding down that i had originally planned and i'm sleeping a little later than i had wanted to. oh well. next time, it's probably a good idea to stick to the 30 min timer and NOT stop it now that a good number of bits and bobs have been dealt with...hopefully they don't all get replaced by new ones by the end of tmr 😂)

Hey guys, I know its been like 2 and half weeks since I've been active on here and sorey about that. I'll explain everything later but, I felt like this is too important not to share.

Did you guys know the IRS has a site for students with learning modules and assessments design to teach you the basics of understanding/filing taxes?

I don't know how good it is but I plan on going through EVERYTHING today so I'll let you know. As someone without really a foundational understanding of how taxes work, this feels like a good resource to share.

Designed for students but it doesn't seem like there's anything stopping ANYONE from just going on here and learning. It look approachable and easy to understand, with links to explain tax jargon and 14 learning modules.

Is it weird to be excited about this? I am genuinely happy to have found this tbh- here I was prepared for a day of slogging through different websites explaining complicated financial terms and this is just here.

I really hope you guys take a look, because I am kind of amazed this just exists in the world and I- at 24 have never come across it or heard any of those dumb financial gurus talk about this.

https://apps.irs.gov/app/understandingTaxes/student/

Let me know if the link doesn't work, and please please pass this knowledge along. I feel like I've stumbled on a goldmine here.

this week feels like it’s hanging in the ether, i stg. i feel so behind in my courses & i’m looking forward to taking this weekend to work on final projects.

i took a look at my course flow guide today & i feel … so behind where i want to be. i’ve been in this program full time for about a year now & it’s so much more work than i thought. i love it, don’t get me wrong — i’m so proud to be a ~woman in STEM~ — but for someone with chronic illness & mental health issues who has a background in english, this career switch is … huge. the learning curve is steep.

but, i can do this. 💪🏼🖤🦴

↳ week six study guide.
