Hello,
If you can't find a driver, you may have to look at other alternatives:

1. Move closer to school/move to dorms; it would probaby be nice to be 
closer to campus resources and your classmates.

2. Leave class early enough to catch the last train and then have a 
classmate or a Disability support worker take notes/record the remainder of 
the lecture. (digital voice recorders are nice as the file can be emailed)

3. Concider transfering schools so that you can attend classes that are more 
favorable to your needs/schedual

4. Work with your Disability office to get class scheduals changed. 
(threaten #3 if they wont, and, I would take that threat straight to 
President of the university) Additionally, take your story public; get your 
fellow students behind you and use their support to pressure the university 
administration to change. There is no reason class should be ending at 
1030pm anyway, and I bet your teachers and classmates hate the schedual as 
well.

5. Concider taking a combination of in-class and online courses (from 
outside insititutions if nesicary, then transfer the credits)

6. Often class scheduals cycle from semester to semester. What is only 
offered at 9 pm this semester may be offered at 3 pm next semester.

Hopefully this helps
Jim
