I was not aware of Recovery of Funds. 

I'm glad to know that students may have recourse if they are attending a school that loses their accreditation.  I have been aware of some programs that have lost their accreditation and felt so bad for the students who have lost time and money. 

Recovery Funds

All are required to provide reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities on licensure and certification testing, and in evaluation of their credentials (that is, whether or not they meet the technical standards of the profession).  

This is very important in the profession of nursing. 

The process of accommodation/modification is about making sure that they have a chance to try what others have the chance to try if it is appropriate for them to do so.   It is not about having a 'fair' or 'unfair' advantage. 

There are a wide variety of disabilities.  Those with disabilities also have a wide variety of abilities.  Once we are notified by the student and presented with the appropriate accommodations letter from the student we should be able to help guide the student so that they have an excellent learning experience.  Having regular 'check-ins' with these students could mean the difference between success and failure for them. 

I learned that ADA and 504 allow for students to have access to programs and that accommodations are not meant to give a student a 'leg up' but to even the playing field.
