In my opinion, yes.
When we inscribed to the University, we should do a questioner
I think At that moment University knows how may students have that characteristic

In North America there will be little such data available because of privacy concerns. Even when registrars compile data on attrition and retention, they cannot cross over this data with the data set of accessibility services. Similarly accessibility services usually have access to this data but, as registration for services guarantees confidentiality, there is little they can do with it. While this is frustrating for researchers, there are very real confidentiality concerns and good reasons why these protections are in place, so that students with disabilities continue to approach services without fear of this info making its way into their academic records. What you will find is qualitative data where researchers have succeeded in creating conditions for studies on attrition among students with disabilities - with appropriate ethical safeguards - working with volunteer participants. This sort of studies can still provide a very rich insight into the reasons why students with disabilities drop out.
