basically, i have a mild physical disability that wouldnt affect my life at college at all and so would not cost schools any extra money. i want to write my essay about my disability and how it has affected me. i was thinking about either writing about how it led me to my academic OR extra curricular interests
If you think it’s an important part of your identity, then go for it. As per the ADA, it is illegal for colleges to discriminate against you based on your disability.
I have a mild disability myself, and I wrote about it in the “additional information” section.
