<p>I asked a similar question for my dd and was also told not to disclose. My dd, though, I think was very wise. She said I don’t want to go to a school that doesn’t want me because of my illness. My dd is bipolar and missed a ton of school. It had to have some explanation because her transcript does not look normal. She completely disclosed to all of her colleges. She did it in a factual way and not a making excuses way. She was accepted at all 5 of her colleges. I think it was a very good move on her part.</p>
