experience w/ LD services at Berkeley, USanFran, SantaClaraU, UofPacific, LMU?

Hi!
I’m a high school senior and I was wondering about the LD services at

UC Berkeley,
USanFran,
SantaClaraU,
UofPacific pre-pharmacy
LMU

I have slow processing and some other stuff and I feel that I need some guidance in college. Right now in high school, I meet with the learning specialist once every couple of weeks to check-in and with any schoolwork I need help with, and that really helps me.

What are your experiences w/ these colleges (both info gathered from visiting and personal experience attending the schools)?

Which schools are the most accommodating / helpful? Did you have trouble getting the accommodations?

Do these colleges have learning specialists that students can make an appointment with for organizational help, etc?

Do you have any advice on what I should look for in a school’s LD services?

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your suggestions.

UC Berkeley did have an LD program similar to the SALT program at U of Arizona, although it may have been free–it’s been awhile so I can’t remember for certain. Also it was a pilot program, so not sure if it is still running. Dig through website.

When DD identified as an LD student in 2014 application, they emailed her a questionnaire and said they would accept a letter of recommendation from a teacher who knew her.

On visiting UCB, she found student population too intense, and preferred laid back U of A–the clincher being a student going to class in PJ bottoms lol

Also U of A offered her a merit scholarship based on her SAT score making it same cost as instate UC. In 2015, scholarships started at 1300 SAT score for out of state students. SALT program is extra cost though. All info is on their website.

Thank you @Maystarmom i appreciate the info! I have read a lot of positive things of u of a here but I won’t be applying because I hope to stay in CA. I’ll look into Berkeley and I’m still curious about the other schools. Thank you for responding!

Our kids have chronic medical conditions which caused them to miss 1/4 to 1/2 of the school year for HS. Santa Clara U suggested they may NOT be a good fit for students who miss up to 2 weeks of class in a semester, even if due to a known chronic medical condition and even if they can keep up in all the coursework. The U MAY ask the student to withdraw from school and forfeit his dorm space, any merit scholarships, etc. S accordingly decided not to consider their acceptance and generous merit awards.

USoCal isn’t on your list but we met with their disabilities office for each of our kids and they seemed quite supportive and had a much more helpful stance than we received from SCU.
