Your college denied your request for accommodations – and you need to fight back.
Colleges must provide accommodations
Under the ADA and Section 504, colleges are required to provide reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities – including extra time on exams.
You have legal protection
If a college denies your accommodations without a valid reason, they're violating federal law. You have the right to challenge their decision.
You need a strong demand letter
A formal letter with legal references is often enough to get the college to reconsider. We'll help you write one.
You need documentation
Without proper documentation, your request can be denied. We'll show you what you need to prove your case.

Questions
Everything you need to know.
Does the ADA apply to colleges?
Yes! The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act both apply to colleges and universities. They require schools to provide reasonable accommodations to students with disabilities – including extra time on exams, quiet testing rooms, and more.
What counts as a reasonable accommodation?
It depends on your disability, but common ones include extra time, note-taking assistance, testing in a quiet room, assistive technology, and alternative format materials. If you need it to perform on equal footing, it's usually considered reasonable.
What if I don't have a formal diagnosis yet?
You can still request accommodations – but you'll need documentation. We'll guide you through how to get a diagnosis and what documentation is required. Don't delay – you can start the process even without a formal diagnosis.
What if the college says my disability doesn't affect exams?
That's a common excuse – but it's up to you to explain how it does. We'll help you write a clear, compelling description of how your disability impacts your performance in testing situations. If they still refuse, you can escalate.
What if the college still refuses after my demand letter?
If they continue to refuse, you have options – file a complaint with the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights (OCR), contact a disability rights organization, or consult a lawyer. The guide includes all these steps.
