Why the details matter
Accommodation requests are growing, and every agency runs its own process with its own deadlines.
What we do
First requests
We review your history and documentation before anything is filed, so the request matches what the testing agency looks for.
How first requests workDocumentation review
We find what's missing or weak in evaluations, records and support letters, and coordinate with your evaluator to fix it.
What we reviewAppeals and reconsideration
When a request is denied or partly approved, we answer each stated reason with targeted evidence, on the agency's deadline.
If you've been deniedHow we work with you

- Request or appeal
We prepare the submission with you and coordinate with your school, program or evaluator.
- Through the decision
We stay with you through the agency's decision and any appeal.
Why accommodations get denied
Most denials come down to documentation, not eligibility. Licensing exams often apply a stricter standard than schools did.
Out-of-date evaluation
Many agencies expect testing from the last few years.
No functional impact
A diagnosis alone doesn't show how the condition limits timed test performance.
No history of use
The accommodation doesn't appear in school or prior testing records.
Missed deadlines
Some agencies allow only one reconsideration per test date.
