Elementary and secondary schools in the United States are required to provide free and appropriate education to students with and without disabilities. Colleges and other post-secondary schools don’t have to provide free education, but they cannot discriminate against those with disabilities. The institution may ask for documentation of your disability, which might include a doctor’s note describing the need for mental health education accommodations.
