The 411 on Disability Disclosure

Whether  a new college student, a new graduate, or a student looking to participate in an internship or co-op, the question “should I disclose my disability?,” can be a thorny one.  Students in this video talk about disclosure at college and in the employment setting and share why they think its important to disclose all the while acknowledging that disclosure is a very personal issue.

Other helpful resources on disclosure can be found at the Student Resources page under the heading, Should I Disclose my Disability?
