Was my first choice. Beautiful campus with friendly people. Food was good, atmosphere was beautiful.

However. And please read.

If you are disabled, whether physically or mentally, choose a different school. They have barely any ADA accessible rooms (and sometimes stick people who aren't even disabled in those rooms because housing overflow), like maybe three ramps, hardly any bathrooms or elevators, no railing on stairs, no signs telling you where accessible pathways are on campus so you have to walk forever to find them.

Housing will not work with you. I had to withdraw from App because they lacked a freshman room with ADA accommodations that fit my needs. Imagine someone telling you they just don't have a place for you. Imagine them telling you or your child their only option is living off campus with middle aged adults (and they don't have a car) or pretending they aren't disabled. That was my situation.

And App continues to accept more and more new students. Thanks a lot, I guess.
