Took a leave

Hey so I go to a target West Coast school (think stanford, Cal Berkeley, etc.) and I recently took a leave for personal reasons. I have tried to return but it was denied because they want to give me more time. I feel like this is absolutely ridiculous and will hurt my internship prospects. I have gotten approval and letters from my psychologist, the VC I worked at, etc. that I am fit to return. The administrators have refused to meet with me. I think I am going to hire a lawyer to at least initiate a meeting. This isn’t a lawyer forum but you all are smart. What are ur thoughts
