Missed Sophomore semester 1 due to medical reason

“Someone in the thread said that my son’s story will make a great college essay as long as he does not complain about or blame the school. Well, the reality is that public schools are to be blamed. They and their negligence it the reason my son is injured.”

I recommended that, and I still would not be overly negative in an essay, you can definitely have your son express his frustrations though. And you will need staff down the road for recs etc. However if the school caused his injury and they’re being this difficult , you have to get some kind of advocate to help, as parents have rights and influence. Can you get him on a 504 or IEP? Anyway colleges are a lot more supportive, tutors, office of disabilities and other services, so I wouldn’t generalize your experience to all higher ed places.
