[quote=Anonymous]I have seen threads where the focus was on mental illness, and the consensus was not to disclose. My DC has dyslexia and we were told not to disclose, even though DCs efforts to overcome this disability were impressive. I actually don’t know if the same holds for chronic medical disorders. I would go with the advice that PP posted from her relative who is an AO. It sounds like a good and strategic balance. The more you can imply that it was “in the past” the better, I would think. You will have time to ask the hard questions about access and support when you have some acceptances in hand. And try to find schools that are know to be supportive and are near treatment centers. Read the academic policies about medical leave and support. [/quote]
