DSA Desk

The University of Pisa has a special desk for students with Learning Disability.

The desk offers:

  • support to the participants in admission exams or assessment tests;
  • mediation interventions with lecturers in preparation for the exams;
  • targeted tutoring for educational activities;
  • information on enrolment procedures and entry tests;
  • individual sessions of didactic counselling;
  • detailed and up-to-date diagnosis and certification for students who do not have a diagnosis or whose diagnosis is out-of-date (i.e. over three years old). Diagnosis and certification will be carried out, in agreement with the Stella Maris Institute, according to the new regulations of the Consensus Conference held in Rome (Istituto Superiore di Sanità, 6-7 December 2010) and the PARCC (Panel for Updating and Revising the Consensus Conference 2007) published in February 2011.
