The more you know about your condition, the better you will be able to help manage it.   Learning strategies to improve organization skills and time management can increase both the amount and effectiveness of studying.

Counseling tailored to the needs of A.D.D. students is available from Jamie Cromer, LCSW, in the Psychiatry Clinic, Department of Psychiatry at the Student Health Center (Uptown).  You can call 855-5255, extension 230 for an appointment.

The following two excellent books are available at the Howard Tilton Library, or can be purchased as paperbacks.  Both books contain many helpful hints on how to succeed in college despite having A.D.D., and all young adults with this condition should read at least one of them.
