<p>San Diego and Chico probably would not be a good idea for such a student.</p>
<p>But aren’t some of the CSUs heavily commuter campuses, meaning not much of a party / social atmosphere on campus? Dominguez Hills, among others, seems to have that reputation.</p>
<p>If there is a non-impacted local CSU that is commuter heavy, then it may be a choice to consider – the OP’s daughter can go to a four year school without the usual party temptations, but live at home with parental support and guidance.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>UCSB and its neighborhood are known to have a lot of parties, exactly what the OP does not want the daughter to be tempted by.</p>
<p>Landmark in VT (again), Lesley in Cambridge MA, New England College in NH (good with learning issues), maybe Endicott (has interior design, not sure about fashion) or Quinnipeac in CT.</p>
<p>Has your daughter tried the non-stimulant meds for ADHD, such as Strattera? Or even something like Trileptal, an anticonvulsant that is sometimes being used for ADHD. I would definitely revisit meds, if these possibilities are relevant. Others have suggested coaching. Maybe you have done that, but alternative approaches to ADHD, besides meds, can help, including exercise and coaching. Sorry if you have already gone through all this already…</p>
<p>Just let her to apply where she wants, let her fail if that is what it takes, let her be more in control and show your love and support no matter what. Sometime it is the only way to handle, some of them can only learn from their mistakes as long as you do not point out every minute that you told her so…it will not be helpful. But we parents still love them, right? We love them when we have predicted that they will fail, right? There are many stories, as long as they are safe, let them try if they think that they know better, they will listen more after that.</p>
<p>OP, how about Mount Saint Mary’s college in Los Angeles? It’s a small women’s school with the option to start out at their two year AA program (campus in downtown LA) and then transfer the credits to their four year program (campus in West Los Angeles, overlooking the Brentwood Getty). Your D’s stats might still be low for the AA program, and she’d probably need supplemental coaching, but worth a look.</p>
<p>I was going to suggest UCLA extension courses, but if she’s gotta move out of the house that won’t work.</p>
<p>Good advice above about letting her choose and fail.</p>
<p>UMass Dartmouth has design, fabric/textile design. [Undergraduate</a> Programs - UMass Dartmouth](<a href=“CVPA Home | College of Visual & Performing Arts | UMass Dartmouth”>CVPA Home | College of Visual & Performing Arts | UMass Dartmouth)</p>
<p>My kid with ADHD applied to only two schools. She also cannot take meds (long story). Doing two applications was plenty for her, she chose them well (suggestions from me were accepted, thank heavens; I gave her a list of my suggestions and then she chose, so no actual conversation occurred; I included a wide range of schools) and got into both. We have found that with ADHD/inattentive, small discussion based classes work best, in schools with a lot of support and advising.</p>
<p>If she doesn’t get into a school she wants to go to, she could take continuing education or daytime classes as a part-time student at a school she respects and might want to go to. No dorms that way, but it would be a good way for her to test the waters and save face with peers. The problem is where she would live. Relatives, friends, off campus roommates. Ideally there would be a good place near you. Just a thought. If she proved herself academically, she could step it up from there and have a convincing application.</p>
