PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE SURVEYS ARE NOW CLOSED.
Many thanks to all participants. We will publish our findings on this website during 2015.
We want to find out what aspirations for Higher Education young people on the autism spectrum have, and how they are currently supported. Your experience and knowledge can help us understand the challenges of entering and succeeding in higher education. Please complete the questionnaire that is most relevant to you. Each questionnaire should take no longer than 20 minutes.
Please also consider to tell your personal story or the story of someone you supported.
If you would like to receive a printed questionnaire please contact Penny Andrews at autism-uni@leedsmet.ac.uk indicating which questionnaire you would like to complete. Unfortunately we cannot reimburse your postage costs when returning the questionnaire to us.
