I suppose this depends a lot on where you are from. In my uni the neoliberalization of studies has paradoxically made studies a bit easier for me because so much is done remotely or by book exams. And this will only increase in the coming years. The "covid is real and should be avoided" years were when I went back and thrived in the remote learning environment.
But they do enforce attendance as a norm. If a course is in person, it's really hard to get exceptions for it. My grades took a hit as soon as the world decided covid is over and studies became hybrid.
I have managed, but I credit this to my own understanding of my neurotype and an ability to work with it better, not the uni. This is my second try as an adult. It is definitely an ableist environment, nothing shows this better than the full covid denialism that took over everywhere.
I'd still say go for it. I wrote my first thesis about neurodiversity, leaning hard into my special interest which made it easier.
