Post-Secondary Education Options

Know Your Rights

If I want an academic adjustment, what must I do?

You must inform the school that you have a disability and need an academic adjustment. Unlike your school district, your postsecondary school is not required to identify you as having a disability or assess your needs.

Most schools have published procedures about the process to follow. You might need to ask a school official for a copy.
