Colleges would make it easier for students with disabilities to get support and share more data.
This bill would make it simpler for college students with disabilities to prove their need for accommodations and get support. Colleges would also need to share more information about these students with the federal government. It also gives permission for $10,000,000 to be set aside for a national center supporting students with disabilities. This amount is about $0.03 per American. This aims to help students and their families choose the right college and succeed.
Today, colleges have more flexibility in what documents they accept for disability accommodations. They are also not required to report specific data on students with disabilities to federal systems. If this bill becomes law, colleges would need to accept a broader range of disability documentation. They would also need to make their accommodation policies clear and report detailed data on students with disabilities to federal agencies. It would also give permission for $10,000,000 — about $0.03 per American — to be set aside for a national center that supports students with disabilities.
