For example, an assessment for learning disabilities costs $1,500 to $3,000. Some universities have assessment services, but these refer students to external testing (some of which may be covered, depending on circumstances). You still have to be a registered student to access these, or to have costs partially covered through student loan eligibility; otherwise, you or your parents will be paying. If you've had to de-register because of your problems, then you're out of luck. The same goes for therapy; talk clearly isn't cheap, in fact it costs $80 or more per hour unless you can use university counselling services – where there is a limit on the number of sessions each student can access. All this is based on the assumption that problems will be short-term and can be "fixed"; wait times for long-term services are often very lengthy.
Hear, hear! Universities have an important role to play in addressing this systemic issue, at least potentially. But what would it take to get them to step up?
