off to college
you have questions about taking diabetes to college
we have answers, and they're all here
the college search
diabetes shouldn't decide where you go to school, but a few questions on a campus tour can save you a lot of headaches later.
accommodations
most students with diabetes skip this. most of them wish they hadn't. here's what accommodations actually cover and how to get them before something goes wrong.
packing for move-in
the supply list your endo appointment won't cover. plus a 90-day countdown to move-in day.
roommates and disclosure
you don't owe anyone your full medical history. knowing what to say before a low happens is a different story.
finding your care team
switching doctors for the first time is annoying and a little nerve-wracking. here's how to find someone good, what to bring and how to transfer your records.
meeting new people
while all your new college friends don’t have to be your diabesties, it might be nice to know a few people on campus who have diabetes - and even hang out together and support each other. it’s kind of a game changer.
burnout
it's real, it's common, and it hits differently in college. some signs you're in it and some tools for getting out.
drinking + parties
not a lecture. real information on alcohol and diabetes that you'll actually use.
jobs + internships
your rights on the job, in clinical programs and in internships. what to disclose, when and to whom.
