Preparing students with disabilities for college

In my case my testing was done last year(as a junior) so it works. My 504 case manager told me not to even acquire about disability services until I was accepted and not to mention it at all on my application. I didn’t follow her advice, it just didn’t make sense to me or my parents. And my essay is on my hearing loss and how I have came to terms with it and embraced it as part of my life. It’s very positive. My ap lit teacher loved the version of it I wrote for an assignment.
