In this week’s episode of the After the IEP podcast—part of our 12-week summer college transition series—we’re diving into a critical conversation: what really happens when students with disabilities choose not to request college accommodations?
Whether your student is hesitant, unsure, or planning to "wait and see" how college goes before applying for support, this episode outlines the Top 5 Consequences of not requesting accommodations—based on real cases I’ve seen in over 15 years on college campuses.
Here’s what we cover:
Why students lose access to necessary academic supports How delaying accommodations impacts GPA and stress levels The hidden connection between untreated needs and mental health struggles What “wait and see” really costs students long term How this one decision can affect major choice—or lead to dropout
These consequences are preventable, and this episode gives you the insight to help your student make an informed decision before the semester starts.
