Salisbury offers a lot of different types of academic support, from pretty extensive tutoring to just being able to work in the learning center with help available (plus just being able to get extra help in the ordinary course from teachers and advisors). One of the kids who gave us a tour at Salisbury (last year) was dyslexic and very advanced in math. Other kids talked about getting help in the learning center for more run-of-the-mill organizational matters, etc., and I think there’s a strong emphasis on study skills throughout the curriculum.
Just to clarify. Salisbury does not offer remediation. They can only help students that come in with the skills in place already and they can support that. This info from AO last December 2016 via phone.
@hellomaisy there are SOME schools that will accept your child’s Neuropsch evaluation in lieu of the SSAT. My daughter has a mild LD and didn’t do bad on the SSAT so we gave the school the scores and the evaluation. I have another daughter who will be applying to BS this fall and I will just send her her Neuropsch Eval to the school (she wants to attend same Bs as her sis). If her SSATs are good…I will send them in to but I really don’t have to.
I would reccomend taking the test again. My oldest who is an advanced reader but has a slower processing speed also had a crazy low reading score her first time and on her 2nd test a month later without much prep her score went up 60% points.
Exeter is getting learning services and supporting those with learning differences but not until 2018
I may be chiming in too late, but I have a Davidson Young Scholar who has dyslexia and dysgraphia and is VERY happy at Dublin. Feel free to PM me.
Dublin is on our list @CindyLWho - may PM you.
