What is special about this toolkit?
This Autism at University toolkit is not merely informational, it is a toolkit to help you make the most of your time at University. It is based on the following principles:
- Less is more: We have selected and summarised, from the generic student toolkit, the most relevant information for you
- Empowerment: We list questions you may want to ask yourself to help you take control and make the most of the resources available
- Support: We give you useful tips and links to find out more about each topic
- Participatory design: This toolkit is the result of a close collaboration between researchers, professionals and undergraduate students on the Autism Spectrum.
The full Autism&Uni toolkit also includes information about relevant facilities, people, services and buildings at a specific university. To find out whether your university has adopted the toolkit or to enquire about adopting it, contact m.fabri@leedsbeckett.ac.uk.
The links below give you useful information to consider before you apply to university, as well as what to expect in classes once you arrive.
