Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Postsecondary institutions are required to offer services if made aware that a student has been identified with ADHD under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. This law prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by any program or activity that receives federal funds. Therefore, if a student discloses their diagnosis or requests accommodations, the institution must work with the student to provide appropriate accommodations. However, institutions are not required to seek out students with ADHD or provide accommodations if they are not aware of the diagnosis.
