Is it beneficial or deleterious to state my mental illness when application?
Because I struggled for my illness during my college and overcoming it is the one of my achievement…And it explains the reason why I got low points on GPA since the onset.
If they want me to say about my historical background and the struggles that I experienced, the first thing in my mind is the illness.
I wonder what their response would be.
I welcome your personal opinion.
My local university says it doesn’t hold it against you, and they just make provisions for supporting you.
Might be worth checking this, or perhaps only saying something after you start.
I think they would understand you being nervous about telling people.

I was actually looking for the support as well for my medication and therapy. I am worried if their insurance and service would cover the medication, otherwise I should find other ways to get my meds. But it is good to hear that they probably wont’ hold against me.
