You could not be denied admission into a program for being deaf. Period. And if you were, you could sue. And you do not need to say wood one about your disabilities in the admissions process. If the program is a direct admit based on stats, just give your stats. The only place I could even see being deaf to be a problem in hursing Education is when the use of a sign language interpreter could be a HIPPA problem. I’ve been to conferences where the Use of readers for disabled nursing students was discussed as a HIPPA violation.
