Despite the occasional boring lecture
and some stressful studying,
college is exciting!
(sparkle noise)
You’re gonna do great.
Just - make sure you’re prepared.
If you have a disability,
you might need accommodations.
That can be things like early registration,
Braille materials, extra time on tests -
You get it.
To get accommodations, ya gotta request ‘em.
First, go to your school’s
disability services office.
Every school has one.
You can find info about it on their website.
Tell them you have a disability
and need accommodations.
Be ready to show proof of your disability
and why you need the accommodation.
Follow your school’s specific procedures.
Keep up with any deadlines
and stay in touch with staff in the office.
If you’ve tried all this
and can’t resolve the problem,
you can file a grievance.
Now this is A LOT.
So if you need help call Disability Rights Texas
and we’ll hook you up
with free legal services.
