Neurodiverse students in college encounter unique hardships, including stigma, insufficient institutional support, and burnout. The stress associated with sensory management and social expectations can be overwhelming. Many report a preference for academic comfort over social engagement and often feel isolated. Accessing resources designed for their needs can be cumbersome. Furthermore, these students frequently resist traditional help-seeking methods. With the growing enrollment of neurodiverse individuals, colleges must enhance well-being programs to offer discreet, accessible support that encourages authenticity and community.
College should not be a place where neurodiverse students are expected to mask their true selves, as such expectations can lead to burnout and additional stress.
Neurodiverse students often face significant challenges due to stigma and lack of support, making it difficult to find community and access necessary resources for their well-being.
