Universities and colleges in Canada have a service for students with physical, psychiatric and/or learning disabilities. American universities provide this service too.

Many universities have a website for their disability service. I have visited some American university websites and found them quite helpful.

At my university, a student has to register for the service. They are assigned a coordinator who determines and sets up the accommodations based on the type of disability or disabilities the student has. Some accommodations are: writing tests using assistive technology, use of a scribe, extra time for tests, and writing in a quiet location. They also provide help with learning strategies and counselling.

I use the service and find it very helpful.
