Pre-Orientation Program
CTL is excited to offer a FREE neurodiversity pre-orientation program during summer 2025. The program is open to all incoming first year and transfer students with documented or self-identified ADHD, autism, learning differences/disabilities, executive functioning challenges, or other physical/mental health conditions that can impact a student's ability to learn.
Students will meet online from 9-10 am Pacific Standard Time (PST) from September 8 to 12, 2025.
The goal of the program is to help students to connect with other neurodiverse students while learning about neuro-affirming strategies and campus resources that will help them to personalize their learning and be successful at Stanford. Students will need a tablet device or computer and working internet. There is no cost to attend.
Please complete the Neurodiversity Pre-Orientation Program Application Form to apply. The application will close at 11:59 pm PST on Thursday, July 31. Students will be notified via their Stanford University email by 5 pm on Friday, August 8. Please make sure to log in with your Stanford student email. The application is through Google Forms. If you are unable to access Google, please email us: mtamas@stanford.edu or spham@stanford.edu.
