Bottom line on disability disclosure

Students with disabilities taking the ACT/SAT are legally protected from submission of flagged scores to colleges for a very good reason.Flagging suggests that the scores are not quite fair or representative of a student’s skills, knowledge and aptitude for college-level work. In my opinion, adding information about disability in the application is self flagging. If the decision to admit includes information about disability and that information was supplied by the applicant, how can a claim of denial of admission based disability be brought and/or substantiated when the applicant disclosed the information? Its easy to find an attorney, but winning isn’t. Everything in the application is fair game for the admissions committee. If the student with a disability is denied admissions and decides to appeal the decision, the student’s disability then can become part of the appeal.
