[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of a high school student with special needs. I am totally unclear how having a 504 would help -- or hurt her -- with scholarships. Is your DD struggling in school and does she need accommodations to access the curriculum or because she must miss school due to the blood disease? Not everyone with ADHD needs accommodations for school. Prospective colleges will only learn that your daughter has a 504 or a medical condition if she chooses discloses it to them for some reason (e.g. writes about it in her application essay). The high school cannot share this information with a college. [/quote] That's good to know, thanks. The office seemed to think as part of the accomodations - that there are many scholarship opportunities that would make a substantial difference in financial aid. Our preschool son has the same issues, and they said we can even get private school scholarships for him under the 504.[/quote]
