I support this decision. If you have a documented learning disability, your university is legally obligated by the Americans with Disabilities Act to provide you with extra time on exams (you can opt not to accept it), offer you assistance with note taking, and workshops on time management. Some students even take medication. All of these things help those students with learning disabilities to level the playing field. If they're still only making a 2.5 after all of these efforts to help them come up to speed, then that is where they would be at without the disability, IMHO.
Your learning disability should not mean you get treated with kid gloves. When it comes time to enter the workforce, no one is going to care why you missed your deadline or lost the big account. They won't blame your ADHD. They'll blame you for not being responsible about your work.
