University & College Testing
Comprehensive Evaluations for College Students Navigating Academic, Emotional, and Executive Functioning Challenges
At Washington Insight Solutions in Rockville, Maryland, we provide comprehensive psychological testing for college students and young adults attending universities and colleges across Montgomery County and the surrounding areas. Whether you are struggling with time management, attention, academic pressure, or emotional wellness, our evaluations are designed to help you better understand what’s happening and how to move forward.
From supporting academic success to helping secure college accommodations, our testing process is clear, compassionate, and tailored to the unique challenges students face during this important phase of life.
Why University and College Testing Matters
College introduces a new level of independence, academic rigor, and life demands. Many students find that what once worked in high school no longer helps them succeed. Issues like focus, organization, and anxiety can become more intense—and for some, previously undiagnosed learning or attention challenges surface for the first time.
Psychological testing can help identify what is holding you back and give you the clarity and direction you need to thrive. Whether you are experiencing burnout, suspect ADHD or a learning disorder, or need documentation for school accommodations, testing can provide real answers and practical solutions.
What is University and College Testing?
University and college testing is a comprehensive psychological evaluation that explores how a student is functioning academically, cognitively, emotionally, and behaviorally. The goal is to understand strengths and challenges, support performance, and offer documentation when needed for disability services or standardized testing accommodations.
At Washington Insight Solutions, our evaluations typically include:
- Cognitive testing to assess memory, reasoning, and processing speed
- Academic achievement testing in areas like reading, math, and writing
- Executive functioning assessment to evaluate organization, planning, and time management
- Self-report questionnaires and behavioral observations
- Emotional health screening for anxiety, depression, or adjustment concerns
- Review of academic history and relevant documentation
This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Every evaluation is tailored to your concerns and goals, whether that’s improved academic performance, clearer self-understanding, or successful transition planning.
Who Should Consider University and College Testing?
You may benefit from a psychological evaluation during college if you:
- Consistently struggle with focus, concentration, or follow-through
- Feel disorganized, overwhelmed, or unable to manage academic demands
- Experience persistent procrastination or poor time management
- Have difficulty with exams, papers, or presentations despite effort
- Experience emotional distress that interferes with daily life or school
- Suspect ADHD, a learning disability, or executive functioning issues
- Need updated documentation for disability accommodations
- Are preparing for graduate school exams like the GRE, MCAT, LSAT, or GMAT
College is a time of discovery and transition. Our testing helps students understand what supports they need to reach their full academic and personal potential.
Our Step-by-Step Evaluation Process
Step 1: Initial Consultation
We start with a detailed intake session to review your background, academic experience, concerns, and goals. This can be done in person or via secure telehealth.
Step 2: Testing Sessions
Over one to three sessions, you’ll complete cognitive, academic, executive functioning, and emotional assessments tailored to your needs. Total testing time usually ranges from three to five hours.
Step 3: Scoring and Clinical Interpretation
Our licensed psychologists score and interpret your results to identify strengths, challenges, and patterns that affect your daily and academic functioning.
Step 4: Feedback and Written Report
You’ll receive a clear, detailed written report along with a one-on-one feedback session to review the results, ask questions, and discuss next steps. The report can be submitted to your school or testing agency for accommodations, or used to inform personal or therapeutic goals.
Common Conditions Identified During Testing
Our evaluations often help students identify and better manage:
- ADHD (often first diagnosed in college)
- Learning disorders (such as dyslexia, processing speed deficits, or working memory challenges)
- Generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, or test anxiety
- Depression and mood-related concerns
- Executive functioning challenges that affect planning, self-monitoring, and productivity
- Emotional burnout and adjustment stress
We help clarify the difference between overlapping conditions and offer specific, evidence-based recommendations to support each student’s success.
