Testing for Learning Disorders and ADHD
You may be struggling with classes and wondering what to do. An advisor or professor may have suggested
“Maybe you have a learning disorder or ADHD.” Maybe you have been diagnosed previously and have been told you need to update your documentation.
The LD/ADHD website is designed to help you answer some of your questions. For example:
- What are learning disorders and ADHD? How are they diagnosed and documented?
- How do I know if I need to be tested?
- Is there anything I can do to improve my academic and life success NOW?
- What does testing involve (e.g. time, money, procedures)?
- How do I apply for testing at SHAC?
- Where else can I go for testing or treatment?
LD/ADHD Testing Mission Statement
- The mission of the LD/ADHD Testing at SHAC is to reduce barriers to learning for at-risk PSU students. While we strive to serve as many as PSU students as possible within the scope of our resources, the number of assessments available each year is limited.
- LD/ADHD Testing offers high quality, low cost assessments of learning disorders and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder so that students may be eligible to access other campus resources (e.g. learning accommodations through the Disability Resource Center).
- Additionally, LD/ADHD Testing provides useful resources and referrals so that all PSU students can be active in assessing their own strengths and weaknesses and implementing strategies for change.
Fee:
$350.00 (your student account will be billed)
