<p>We consulted 2 counselors (private) when my oldest with ADHD applied to college. The advice we got from both was not to disclose. There is no incentive for private colleges to work with your LD child. State schools do have a responsibility and need to accomodate, but privates don't and the assumption may well be that the student will have difficulty. Let's face it, they areaccepting and churning out high achievers,nothing in their model seeks diversity of ability, and if you start out by making excuses for lesser achievement, it's hard to think it will help.</p>
<p>My son BTW, is doing great in a very competitive major at a top UC. Good luck!</p>
