At most universities and colleges, faculty provide accomodation to students with a documented learning disability. Accomodation includes extra time on an exam for dyslexia, an individual to read exam questions to a eyesight impaired student, a sign language translator for a hearing impaired student, etc. Accomodation helps level the playing field so that the disability's effect on a student's ability to learn and perform is reduced.
A student with a GPA < 2.5 needs to focus on her studies in order to land a good job, attend grad school etc. In fact, a student with a GPA < 3.0 should be more focused on academics too.
