Frequently-asked questions
We recommend attending all sessions to get the most out of the day. We also understand that this won’t be right for everyone, so there’s no pressure to participate if you don’t want to. There will be plenty of breaks in the programme, as well as a quiet room nearby.
Autism Transition Day is aimed at students transitioning from school to higher education for the first time. You’re also welcome to come along if you’re at a different level but think you would find the event useful.
