ORDER GRANTING MOTION TO DISMISS
LUCY H. KOH, United States District JudgePlaintiff Gregory Nicholas Steshenko (“Plaintiff’) brings this action for age discrimination based on not being admitted to a graduate program at San Francisco State University. Defendants Geraldine Albee and the Board of Trustees of the California State University (collectively, “Defendants”) move to dismiss Plaintiffs Complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure (“Rule”) 12(b)(6). ECF No. 15 (“Mot.”). The Court held a hearing on this motion on May 15, 2014. Having considered the parties’ briefs and arguments, the relevant law, and the record in this case, the Court hereby GRANTS Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss.
I. BACKGROUND
Plaintiff is a 52-year-old unemployed electrical engineer seeking to re-enter the job market through a professional re-training. ECF No. 1 (“Compl.”) at ¶ 10. In addition to a Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering, Plaintiff earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of California, Santa Cruz. See id. at ¶ 10.
On October 22, 2012, Plaintiff applied to the Clinical Laboratory Scientist (“CLS”) Internship Program at San Francisco State University for enrollment in the Fall Semester of 2013. Compl. ¶ 12. The CLS Internship Program is a one-year academic program combining theoretical training with an internship at a participating clinical laboratory. Id. at ¶ 11. On *1285March 19, 2013, Plaintiff was notified that he would not be invited for an admission interview. Id. at ¶ 12. In response to Plaintiffs inquiries, CLS Director Defendant Albee stated that the reason for the denial was that Plaintiffs transcript — with the grade for one of the prerequisite classes — arrived after the deadline. Id. Albee also stated that the participating clinical laboratories, not San Francisco State University, made admission decisions for the program. Id.
On June 12, 2013, Plaintiff reapplied to the CLS Internship Program for enrollment in the Spring Semester of 2014. Compl. ¶ 13. On August 28, 2013, Albee notified Plaintiff that Plaintiff “did not meet the criteria for selection into the CLS program.” Id. Albee refused to clarify what “criteria” Plaintiff did not meet, and ceased communications with Plaintiff. Id. According to Plaintiff, much younger applicants, in their 20s, with much more inferior academic credentials and work experience, were invited for interviews and subsequently admitted to the program. Id.
Plaintiff alleges that the CLS Internship Program and the participating clinical laboratories “heavily discriminate on the grounds of age.” Compl. at ¶ 14. Plaintiff alleges: “No persons of the protected age have ever been admitted to the [CLS Program]. The age discrimination is rampant.” Id. Plaintiff further alleges that Plaintiffs age was the “only derogatory factor” that “prevented [Plaintiffs] admission to the CLS Internship Program, denied Plaintiff a professional license, and ultimately denied Plaintiff a professional job. Id.
Plaintiff alleges that he has exhausted his administrative remedies with the US-DOE. Compl. ¶ 7. Plaintiff also alleges that he filed a timely administrative claim with the California State University Chancellor’s Office. Compl. ¶ 8. However, Defendants chose not to respond to Plaintiffs claim. Id.
On October 24, 2013, Plaintiff filed a Complaint against Defendants. ECF No. I. On March 26, 2014, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6). ECF No. 14. That same day, Defendants amended the Motion to Dismiss. ECF No. 15 (“Mot.”).1 After the Court granted Plaintiffs motion to extend time to file a response to the Motion to Dismiss, on April 17, 2014, Plaintiff filed an Opposition. ECF No. 20. On April 23, 2014, Defendants filed a Reply. ECF No. 21. The Court held a hearing on May 15, 2014. Plaintiff filed a supplemental letter brief on May 16, 2014. ECF No. 23.
II. LEGAL STANDARD
A. Motion to Dismiss Under Rule 12(b)(6)
Rule 8(a)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires a complaint to include “a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief.” A complaint that fails to meet this standard may be dismissed pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). The Supreme Court has held that Rule 8(a) requires a plaintiff to plead “enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.” Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007). “A claim has facial plausibility when the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, *1286678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009). “The plausibility standard is not akin to a probability requirement, but it asks for more than a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully.” ■ Id. (internal quotation marks omitted). For purposes of ruling on a Rule 12(b)(6) motion, a court “acceptfs] factual allegations in the complaint as true and construe[s] the pleadings in the'light most favorable to the nonmoving party.” Manzarek v. St. Paul Fire & Marine Ins. Co., 519 F.3d 1025, 1031 (9th Cir.2008). Moreover, pro se pleadings are to be construed liberally. Resnick v. Hayes, 213 F.3d 443, 447 (9th Cir.2000) (“[I]n general, courts must construe pro se pleadings liberally”).
However, a court need not accept as true allegations contradicted by judicially noticeable facts, Shwarz v. United States, 234 F.3d 428, 435 (9th Cir.2000), and the “[Cjourt may look beyond the plaintiffs complaint to matters of public record” without converting the Rule 12(b)(6) motion into one for summary judgment, Shaw v. Hahn, 56 F.3d 1128, 1129 n. 1 (9th Cir.1995). Nor is the court required to “ ‘assume the truth of legal conclusions merely because they are cast in the form of factual allegations.’ ” Fayer v. Vaughn, 649 F.3d 1061, 1064 (9th Cir.2011) (per curiam) (quoting W. Mining Council v. Watt, 643 F.2d 618, 624 (9th Cir.1981)). Mere “conclusory allegations of law and unwarranted inferences are insufficient to defeat a motion to dismiss.” Adams v. Johnson, 355 F.3d 1179, 1183 (9th Cir.2004); accord Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937. Furthermore, “a plaintiff may plead herself out of court” if she “plead[s] facts which establish that [s]he cannot prevail on h[er] ... claim.” Weisbuch v. Cnty. of L.A., 119 F.3d 778, 783 n. 1 (9th Cir.1997) (internal quotation marks omitted).
B. Leave to Amend
If the Court determines that the complaint should be dismissed, it must then decide whether to grant leave to amend. Under Rule 15(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, leave to amend “should be freely granted when justice so requires,” bearing in mind that “the underlying purpose of Rule 15 ... [is] to facilitate decision on the merits, rather than on the pleadings or technicalities.” Lopez v. Smith, 203 F.3d 1122, 1127 (9th Cir.2000) (en banc) (internal quotation marks omitted). When dismissing a complaint for failure to state a claim, “a district court should grant leave to amend even if no request to amend the pleading was made, unless it determines that the pleading could not possibly be cured by the allegation of other facts.” Id. at 1130 (quoting Doe v. United States, 58 F.3d 494, 497 (9th Cir.1995)). Furthermore, the Court “has a duty to ensure that pro se litigants do not lose their right to a hearing on the merits of their claim due to ignorance of technical procedural requirements.” Balistreri v. Pacifica Police Dep’t, 901 F.2d 696, 699 (9th Cir.1990). Nonetheless, a court “may exercise its discretion to deny leave to amend due to ‘undue delay, bad faith or dilatory motive on part of the movant, repeated failure to cure deficiencies by amendments previously allowed, undue prejudice to the opposing party ..., [and] futility of amendment.’ ” Carvalho v. Equifax Info. Servs., LLC, 629 F.3d 876, 892-93 (9th Cir.2010) (alterations in original) (quoting Foman v. Davis, 371 U.S. 178, 182, 83 S.Ct. 227, 9 L.Ed.2d 222 (1962)).
III. DISCUSSION
Plaintiffs Complaint asserts seven causes of action against Defendants, but groups them into the following four causes of action: (1) age discrimination in violation of the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (“ADA”), Age Discrimination in Employ*1287ment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), and California Fair Employment and Housing Act (“FEHA”); (2) violation of due process and equal protection rights under the Fourteenth Amendment pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (“Section 1983”) and § 52.1 of the California Civil Code (“Bane Act”); (3) conspiracy to interfere with civil rights pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1985(3) (“Section 1985(3)”); and (4) intentional infliction of emotional distress (“IIED”). See Compl. at 5-7.
Defendants move to dismiss Plaintiffs Complaint under Rule 12(b)(6) on the ground that Plaintiffs Complaint-fails to state any claims upon which relief can be granted. See Mot. at 3-12. Specifically, Defendants contend that: (1) the Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution is a complete bar to all of Plaintiffs claims against Defendant Board of Trustees of the California State University, Mot. at 3-8;2 and (2) each of Plaintiffs claims against Defendant Albee fail because (a) Albee cannot be individually liable for those claims, and (b) Plaintiff has not pled sufficient facts to constitute a claim. Mot. at 8-13. For the reasons set forth below, the Court GRANTS Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs Complaint.
A. Defendant Board of Trustees of the California State University
Defendants argue that the Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution is a complete bar to all claims against Defendant Board of Trustees of the California State University (“Board of Trustees”). Mot. at 3.
The Eleventh Amendment provides:
The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State.
U.S. Const. Amend. XI.
Essentially, the Eleventh Amendment erects a general bar against federal lawsuits brought against a state. Porter v. Jones, 319 F.3d 483, 491 (9th Cir.2003). “The Eleventh Amendment bars suits which seek either damages or injunctive relief against a state, an ‘arm of the state,’ its instrumentalities, or its agencies.” Franceschi v. Schwartz, 57 F.3d 828, 831 (9th Cir.1995) (citation omitted). The Board of Trustees is an arm of the state of California and thus the Board of Trustees may invoke the Eleventh Amendment immunity. Stanley v. Trs. of the Cal. State Univ., 433 F.3d 1129, 1133 (9th Cir.2006) (nqting that the Ninth Circuit has previously held that the Trustees of the California State University “are an arm of the *1288state that can properly lay claim to sovereign immunity”) (citing Jackson v. Hayakawa, 682 F.2d 1344, 1350-51 (9th Cir.1982)).
State immunity under the Eleventh Amendment is not absolute, however, as there are three exceptions to the rule: (1) Congress may abrogate that immunity pursuant to its lawmaking powers conferred by the United States Constitution, Kimel v. Fla. Bd. of Regents, 528 U.S. 62, 80, 120 S.Ct. 631, 145 L.Ed.2d 522 (2000); (2) the state may waive its Eleventh Amendment immunity by consenting to suit, College Sav. Bank v. Florida Prepaid Postsecondary Educ. Expense Bd., 527 U.S. 666, 670, 119 S.Ct. 2219, 144 L.Ed.2d 605 (1999); and (3) under the Ex parte Young doctrine, immunity does not apply when the plaintiff chooses to sue a state official in his or her official capacity for prospective injunctive relief, Seminole Tribe of Fla. v. Florida, 517 U.S. 44, 73, 116 S.Ct. 1114, 134 L.Ed.2d 252 (1996).
Here, Plaintiff attempts to avoid the bar of the Eleventh Amendment by invoking the Ex parte Young doctrine exception against the Board of Trustees. Plaintiff clarifies that he is only pleading a claim of injunctive relief against the Board of Trustees as allowed by the Ex parte Young doctrine. Compl. ¶ 4 (alleging that “The Eleventh Amendment permits citizens of any state to seek an injunction or other form of equitable relief against the state in federal court to ‘end a continuing violation of federal law’ ” and citing Ex parte Young, 209 U.S. 123, 28 S.Ct. 441, 52 L.Ed. 714 (1908)); Opp’n at 5 (“Plaintiff is suing the Trustees of the California State University for injunctive relief only.”). For the reasons set forth below, the Ex parte Young doctrine exception does not apply to Plaintiffs claims against the Board of Trustees, and the Court GRANTS Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss all of Plaintiffs claims against the Board of Trustees.
1. Ex parte Young doctrine
While the Eleventh Amendment erects a general bar against federal lawsuits brought against a state, the Eleventh Amendment does not bar actions for prospective declaratory or injunctive relief against state officers in their official capacities for their alleged violations of federal law. See Ex parte Young, 209 U.S. at 155-56, 28 S.Ct. 441. The exception to Eleventh Amendment immunity recognized in Ex parte Young “is based in part on the premise that sovereign immunity bars relief against States and their officers in both state and federal courts, and that certain suits for declaratory or injunctive relief against state officers must therefore be' permitted if the Constitution is to remain the supreme law of the land.” Alden v. Maine, 527 U.S. 706, 747, 119 S.Ct. 2240, 144 L.Ed.2d 636 (1999).
As an initial matter, the Ex parte Young exception applies only where the state officials are allegedly violating federal law; it does not reach suits seeking relief against state officials for violations of state law. Pennhurst State Sch. & Hosp. v. Halderman, 465 U.S. 89, 106, 104 S.Ct. 900, 79 L.Ed.2d 67 (1984) (stating that . “when a plaintiff alleges that a state official has violated state law,” “the entire basis for the doctrine ... disappears”). Accordingly, the Ex parte Young doctrine does not exempt from Eleventh Amendment immunity Plaintiffs state law claims — FEHA claim, Bane Act claim, and IIED claim — against the Board of Trustees. Thus, the Eleventh Amendment bars Plaintiffs state law claims against the Board of Trustees.
With respect to Plaintiffs federal law claims, Defendants argue that the Ex parte Young doctrine is inapplicable when *1289a claim is asserted against a state or state agency, as opposed to against a state official. Mot. at 7. According to Defendants, the Board of Trustees “is the State and is not a state official” and thus the Ex parte Young doctrine does not apply. See id. at 8.
In Ex parte Young, the Supreme Court recognized that a “suit challenging the constitutionality of a state official’s action is not one against the State.” Pennhurst, 465 U.S. at 108, 104 S.Ct. 900. Courts have held that a board of trustees is not a state official acting in its official capacity and thus the Ex parte Young doctrine does not apply to a board of trustees. See, e.g., Eubank v. Leslie, 210 Fed.Appx. 887, 844-45 (11th Cir.2006) (stating “The University of Alabama Board of Trustees is a state agency, not a state official acting in its official capacity ... [h]ence, the exception to 11th Amendment immunity set out in Ex parte Young does not apply to claims against it[.]”). In the instant case, Plaintiff has named the Board of Trustees as a defendant. Thus, because the Board of Trustees is not a state official acting in its official capacity, the Ex parte Young doctrine does not apply and the Eleventh Amendment bar remains in effect.
Plaintiff, however, argues that “the question of whether or not the board members are public officials is irrelevant” because “[t]he California State University itself requires the legal claims against the University designate the Board of Trustees as the defendant.” Opp’n at 9. However, Plaintiff cites no authority for that proposition. Plaintiff also cites a First Circuit case for the proposition that “[a] suit against a public official in his official capacity is a suit against the government entity itself.” Opp’n at 9 (citing Surprenant v. Rivas, 424 F.3d 5, 19 (1st Cir.2005)). However, the Surprenant court did not make that statement in the context of the Ex parte Young doctrine or the Eleventh Amendment. Rather, that statement was made in the context of unconstitutional conditions of confinement under the Eighth Amendment and Fourteenth Amendment. Thus, Surprenant is inapposite.
Because the Ex parte Young doctrine does not apply to state law claims and federal claims against a board of trustees, all of Plaintiffs claims against the Board of Trustees remain barred by the Eleventh Amendment. Accordingly, all of Plaintiffs claims against the Board of Trustees are dismissed. Plaintiff, however, pray invoke the other exceptions to Eleventh Amendment immunity. Thus, the dismissal is without prejudice.
B. Defendant Albee
Plaintiff asserts federal and state law claims against Defendant Albee in her individual capacity for monetary and equitable relief. Compl. ¶ 5. For the reasons set forth below, the Court concludes that Plaintiff fails to state a claim for violations of federal law against Albee. Having reached this conclusion, the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiffs remaining state law claims. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Defendants’ motion to dismiss Plaintiffs claims as to Albee.
1. Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (“ADA”) Claim
Plaintiff alleges that Albee violated the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (“ADA”) by denying Plaintiff admission to the CLS Internship Program because of Plaintiffs age. Compl. ¶¶ 15-16. Defendants, however, argue that the ADA does not authorize recovery of monetary damages and that Albee is not a proper defendant in ADA actions. Mot. at 9.
*1290Under the ADA, “no person in the United States shall, on the basis of age, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under, any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” 42 U.S.C. § 6102. The ADA, however, does not authorize the recovery of monetary damages as to individual defendants. Rasmussen v. State DMV, No. CV 08-1604-FMC (PLA), 2008 WL 5274611, at *4, 2008 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 120895, at *14-15 n.3 (C.D.Cal. Nov. 25, 2008) (citing Montalvo-Padilla v. University of Puerto Rico, 498 F.Supp.2d 464, 468 (D.Puerto Rico 2007) (noting that the private cause'of action created by the Age Discrimination Act “is limited to injunctive relief and the recovery of attorney’s fees”) and Tyrrell v. City of Scranton, 134 F.Supp.2d 373, 383 (M.D.Pa.2001) (“the [Act] cannot support an action for damages”)). Thus, Plaintiff may not seek monetary damages from individual defendants such as Albee under the ADA.
Plaintiff argues that the cases above are distinguishable because “the circumstances of [those] cases are very different (employment discrimination v. educational discrimination that precludes employment^.]” Opp’n at 10. However, Plaintiff does not explain how the cases are “very different” and how the purported factual distinction changes the Rasmussen, Montalvo-Padilla, and Tyrrell courts’ holdings. Indeed, Plaintiff concedes in his Opposition that “the net effect of both is the same: denial of employment.” Id. at 11. Plaintiff also argues that it would be “highly illogical” for the ADEA to authorize damages while the ADA does not. See id. at 10. Plaintiff, however, does not offer any authority to support his argument. Absent any authority otherwise, the Court will follow the courts in Rasmussen, Montalvo-Padilla, and Tyrrell and hold that the ADA does not authorize Plaintiff to recover money damages against Albee.
Defendants also argue that the ADA’s enforcement provision, Section 6104(e), “make[s] clear that the only proper defendants are the ‘program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.’ ” Mot. at 9. While the Ninth Circuit has not addressed whether an individual defendant can be held liable under the ADA for attorneys’ fees or injunctive relief, a review of the relevant provisions of the ADA demonstrates that Plaintiff cannot maintain an ADA claim against Albee. As set forth above, the ADA prohibits a “program or activity” receiving federal financial assistance from discriminating against a person because of' that person’s age. 42 U.S.C. § 6102. “Program or activity” is defined to include a college, university, or other postsecondary institution, or a public system of higher education. See 42 U.S.C. § 6107(4)(B)(i). Because school employees are not included in that definition, and because school employees do not “receive federal financial assistance,” Albee is not a proper defendant under the ADA.
Moreover, courts have held that claims may not be asserted against school employees in their individual capacities under statutes with similar language directing similar prohibitions to a “public entity” and “any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” For example, under the Americans with Disabilities Act, “no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such entity.” 42 U.S.C. § 12132. School officials, however, may not be held liable under the Americans with Disabilities Act because they are neither a “public entity” nor a “federal recipient.” Stassart v. Lakeside Joint Sch. Dist., No. 09-1131 JF, 2009 WL *12913188244, at *13, 2009 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 104971, at *39 (N.D.Cal. Sept. 29, 2009) (dismissing plaintiffs claim against the school superintendent, in his individual capacity, because the school superintendent is neither a “public entity” nor a “federal recipient.”). Plaintiff does not cite to any contrary authority to demonstrate that a school official such as Albee may be liable in her individual capacity under the ADA. Indeed, Plaintiff neglects to address this argument in his Opposition.
Accordingly, Plaintiff may not sue Albee individually under the ADA. Because Plaintiff cannot allege additional facts to cure this deficiency, the Court dismisses Plaintiffs ADA claim against Albee with prejudice.
2. Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) Claim
Plaintiff also alleges that Albee violated the ADEA by denying Plaintiff admission to the CLS Internship Program because of Plaintiffs age. Compl. ¶¶ 15-16. Plaintiff alleges that “the program has dual characteristics of an educational setting and temporary work.” Id. at ¶ 16. Plaintiff explains that “[e]ven if the Court finds that the program is either purely educational or purely constituted work, the age discrimination was unlawful under [either the ADA or ADEA].” Id. Defendants, however, argue that individual defendants have no liability under the ADEA statutory scheme, and thus claims against Albee in her individual capacity may be properly dismissed for failure to state a claim. Mot. at 8-9.
The ADEA makes it unlawful for an employer “to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual or otherwise discriminate against any individual ... because of such individual’s age.” 29 U.S.C. § 623(a)(1). In Miller v. Maxwell’s Int’l, the Ninth Circuit held that individual defendants cannot be held liable for damages under the ADEA. 991 F.2d 583, 587-88 (9th Cir.1993). The Ninth Circuit reasoned that the statutory scheme itself indicated that Congress did not intend to impose individual liability on employees. Id. at 587. “ADEA limits liability to employers with twenty or more employees, 29 U.S.C. § 630(b), in part because Congress did not want to burden small’entities with the costs associated with litigating discrimination claims. If Congress decided to protect small entities with limited resources from liability, it is inconceivable that Congress intended to allow civil liability to run against individual employees.” Id. Here, Defendant Albee is not an employer; she is an individual employee of San Francisco State University. Compl. ¶ 3. Thus, Albee cannot be held liable under the ADEA.
Plaintiff appears to contend that Miller was incorrectly decided and, in support, cites a 1995 law review article, which criticizes the holding in Miller. Opp’n at 10, Ex. C (Employment Discrimination-Miller v. Maxwell, International, Inc: Individual Liability for Supervisory Employees Under Title VII and ADEA, 17 W. New Eng. L.Rev., 143 (1995)). However, Ninth Circuit case law — not law review articles— bind this Court.
Plaintiff also cites to Jones v. Continental Corp., 789 F.2d 1225 (6th Cir.1986), for the proposition that individual employees are liable under the ADEA. Opp’n at 8. However, the Jones court did not address individual liability under the ADEA. Rather, the Jones court emphasized that individuals may be liable for violations of 42 U.S.C. § 1981 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 789 F.2d at 1231 (stating that “the law is clear that individuals may be held liable for violations of § 1981 ... and as ‘agents’ of an employer under Title VII”). Accordingly, Plaintiffs *1292reliance on Jones is misplaced. Therefore, the Court will follow Miller.
Accordingly, Albee cannot be held individually liable under the ADEA, and Plaintiffs ADEA claim against Albee is dismissed. Because Plaintiff cannot allege any additional facts that would cure the deficiency of Plaintiffs ADEA claim as to Albee, the Court dismisses with prejudice.
3. 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (“Section 1983”) Claim (Denial of Equal Protection and Due Process)
Plaintiff alleges that Albee violated Section 1983 by “violating Plaintiffs rights to equal protection of the laws and to due process of law under the Fourteenth Amendment” by denying Plaintiff “professional re-training” and “access to employment” because of Plaintiffs age. Compl. ¶¶ 17-18. Defendants argue that Plaintiffs ADA and ADEA claims foreclose Plaintiffs Section 1983 claim because the ADA and ADEA provide the exclusive remedies for claims of age discrimination. See Mot. at 10-11.
“Section 1983 does not create any substantive rights, but is instead a vehicle by which plaintiffs can bring federal constitutional and statutory challenges to actions by state and local officials.” Anderson v. Warner, 451 F.3d 1063, 1067 (9th Cir.2006) (citing Cholla Ready Mix, Inc. v. Civish, 382 F.3d 969, 978 (9th Cir.2004) (internal quotation marks omitted)). The statute’s purpose “is to deter state actors from using the badge of their authority to deprive individuals of their federally guaranteed rights.” Id. (quoting McDade v. West, 223 F.3d 1135, 1139 (9th Cir.2000)).
An alleged violation of federal law may not be vindicated under Section 1983 where “Congress has foreclosed citizen enforcement in the enactment itself, either explicitly, or implicitly by imbuing-it with its own comprehensive remedial scheme.” Vinson v. Thomas, 288 F.3d 1145, 1155 (9th Cir.2002) (citations omitted). “When the remedial devices provided in a particular Act are sufficiently comprehensive, they may suffice to demonstrate congressional intent to preclude the remedy of suits under § 1983.” Middlesex Co. Sewerage Auth. v. National Sea Clammers Ass’n, 453 U.S. 1, 20, 101 S.Ct. 2615, 69 L.Ed.2d 435 (1981)). When Congress has created so many specific statutory remedies, “[i]t is hard to believe that Congress intended to preserve the § 1983 right of action.” Id. Thus, “the existence of these express remedies. demonstrates not only that Congress intended to foreclose implied private actions but also that it intended to supplant any remedy that otherwise would be available under § 1983.” Id. at 21, 101 S.Ct. 2615. “The provision ■ of an express, private means of redress in the statute itself is ordinarily an indication that Congress did not intend to leave open a more expansive remedy under § 1983.” City of Rancho Palos Verdes v. Abrams, 544 U.S. 113, 121, 125 S.Ct. 1453, 161 L.Ed.2d 316 (2005). “To preclude enforcement under section 1983, the Act’s remedial scheme must be so comprehensive as to leave no room for additional private remedies.” Buckley v. City of Redding, 66 F.3d 188, 193 (9th Cir.1995).
In Ahlmeyer v. Nev. Sys. of Higher Educ., the Ninth Circuit found that the ADEA “provides a comprehensive remedial scheme.” 555 F.3d 1051, 1060 (9th Cir.2009). Thus, the Ninth Circuit held that “the ADEA precludes the assertion of age discrimination in employment claims, even those seeking to vindicate constitutional rights, under § 1983.” Id. at 1057. Specifically, the Ninth Circuit found the following ADEA remedial scheme comprehensive:
*1293A prerequisite to the bringing of a private action is that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) must be given sixty days notice. 29 U.S.C. § 626(d). This period is designed to give the EEOC time to mediate the grievance “by informal methods of conciliation, conference, and persuasion.” 29 U.S.C. § 626(b). The right to commence a private action, it should be noted, terminates upon the filing of an action by the EEOC. 29 U.S.C. § 626(c). Finally, notification to the EEOC must be given within 180 days after the alleged unlawful actions took place, unless the party is also seeking state relief. 29 U.S.C. § 626(d)(1).
Id. at 1056 n. 4 (citation omitted). Thus, Plaintiffs Section 1983 claim alleging age discrimination in employment in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment is foreclosed. The Court dismisses Plaintiffs Section 1983 claim based on age discrimination in employment with prejudice because any amendment would be futile.
The Court next addresses Plaintiffs Section 1983 claim alleging age discrimination by a program or activity receiving federal financial assistance in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment. Defendants note that there are no known cases — and the Court has not found any — that address whether the ADA’s remedial scheme is sufficiently comprehensive to preclude Section 1983 claims. However, in determining whether the ADA created a private cause of action against a federal agency or its employees for failure to remedy an alleged violation of the ADA, the Third Circuit found that the ADA contains a comprehensive remedial scheme. See Sindram v. Fox, 374 Fed.Appx. 302, 305 (3d Cir.2010) (“Congress also created a comprehensive remedial scheme that does 'not include a cause of action against a federal agency or its employees.”). To determine whether the ADEA’s remedial scheme precludes Section 1983 actions, the Ninth Circuit in Ahlmeyer stated that “courts must analyze the comprehensiveness of a statute” and the statute’s “corresponding preclusion of other remedies” to determine whether the statute should be read as precluding Section 1983 actions. 555 F.3d at 1060.
The ADA provides the following remedial scheme. Under Section 6102, “no person in the United States shall, on the basis of age, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under, any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” 42 U.S.C. §§ 6102. Funding agencies have the authority to promulgate regulations to carry out the provisions of Section 6102 and to provide “appropriate investigative, conciliation, and enforcement procedures.” 42 U.S.C. §§ 6103(a)(l)(4). The agency can “seek to achieve compliance” with its regulations “by terminating, or refusing to grant or to continue, assistance under the program or activity.” 42 U.S.C. § 6104(a)(1).
In addition to agency oversight and enforcement, the ADA also provides beneficiaries with an administrative remedy and judicial remedy. Beneficiaries who believe a recipient is violating Section 6102 can file an administrative complaint with the relevant agency. 42 U.S.C. § 6104(f). If, after 180 days, the agency either takes no action or finds in favor of the recipient, the beneficiary can seek to “enjoin a violation of [the ADA] by any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” 42 U.S.C. § 6104(e)(1), (f). Notably, the Section 6104(c) private cause of action allows a court to enjoin a violation of Section 6102. The above provisions expressly provide for a method of enforcing the rights created *1294by the ADA; suggesting that Congress intended to preclude other methods of enforcement. Alexander v. Sandoval, 532 U.S. 275, 290, 121 S.Ct. 1511, 149 L.Ed.2d 517 (2001) (stating that “[t]he express provision of one method of enforcing a substantive rule suggests that Congress intended to preclude others.”).
Based on the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Middlesex and the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Ahlmeyer, the Court finds that the ADA’s remedial scheme is sufficiently comprehensive to foreclose Section 1983 claims alleging age discrimination by a program or activity receiving federal financial assistance in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment. This finding is consistent with the Ninth Circuit’s recent decision in Okwu v. McKim, 682 F.3d 841, 844-46 (9th Cir.2012), which found that the remedial scheme of the Americans with Disabilities Act was sufficiently comprehensive to foreclose Section 1983 claims based on disability discrimination. Accordingly, Plaintiffs Section 1983 claim alleging age discrimination by a program or activity receiving federal financial assistance in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment is dismissed with prejudice because amendment would be futile.
4. Section 1985(3) Claim
Plaintiff alleges that Albee conspired to interfere with Plaintiffs civil rights pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1985(3) (“Section 1985(3)”). Compl. ¶¶ 19-20. Defendants argue that this claim should be dismissed because Plaintiff has not pled specific facts from which a conspiracy can be plausibly inferred under Section 1985(3). Mot. at 11-12.
Section 1985(3) prohibits conspiracies “for the purpose of depriving, either directly or indirectly, any person or class of persons of the equal protection of the laws[.]” See 42 U.S.C. § 1985(3); Griffin v. Breckenridge, 403 U.S. 88, 101-02, 91 S.Ct. 1790, 29 L.Ed.2d 338 (1971). A claim for violation of Section 1985(3) requires the existence of a conspiracy and an act in furtherance of the conspiracy. Holgate v. Baldwin, 425 F.3d 671, 676 (9th Cir.2005) (citing Sever v. Alaska Pulp Corp., 978 F.2d 1529, 1536 (9th Cir.1992)). A mere allegation of conspiracy is insufficient to state a claim. Id. at 676-77. Allegations that identify “the period of the conspiracy, the object of the conspiracy, and certain other actions of the alleged conspirators taken to achieve that purpose,” Marchese v. Umstead, 110 F.Supp.2d 361, 371 (E.D.Pa.2000), and allegations that identify “which defendants conspired, how they conspired and how the conspiracy led to a deprivation of ... constitutional rights,” Harris v. Roderick, 126 F.3d 1189, 1196 (9th Cir.1997), have been held to be sufficiently particular to properly allege a conspiracy.
Here, Plaintiff merely makes a eonclusory allegation that “Defendants conspired to violate [Plaintiffs] civil right to be free from the age related discrimination, and succeeded in injuring Plaintiff through denial of professional re-training and employment opportunities.” Compl. ¶ 20. However, a mere allegation of conspiracy is insufficient to state a claim. Holgate, 425 F.3d at 676-77. Plaintiff also pleads no facts to support his conspiracy claim. Plaintiff does not allege: (1) a specific agreement between Albee and another person; (2) the scope of the conspiracy; (3) Albee’s role in the conspiracy; (4) when and how the conspiracy operated; and (5) what action was taken in furtherance of that conspiracy. Because such facts were not alleged, Plaintiffs conspiracy allegation is insufficient. See Lacey v. Maricopa, 693 F.3d 896, 937 (9th Cir.2012) (conspiracy allegations insufficient when plaintiff did not plead the scope of the con*1295spiracy, what role the defendant had, or when and how the conspiracy operated).
Because Plaintiff fails to allege any facts from which a conspiracy can be plausibly inferred under Section 1985(3), Plaintiffs Section 1985(3) claim is dismissed as to Albee. Plaintiff, however, may allege additional facts to cure the deficiencies identified above. As such, the Court dismisses with leave to amend.
5. Plaintiffs Remaining State Law Claims (FEHA Claim, Bane Act Claim, and IIED Claim)
Because the parties in this case are non-diverse, see Compl. ¶¶ 2-3, the now-dismissed federal law claims provide the sole bases for federal subject matter jurisdiction in this case. While a federal court may exercise supplemental jurisdiction over state law claims “that are so related to claims in the action within [the court’s] original jurisdiction that they form part of the same case or controversy under Article III of the United States Constitution,” 28 U.S.C. § 1367(a), a court may decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction where it “has dismissed all claims over which it has original jurisdiction,” 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3); see also Albingia Versicherungs A.G. v. Schenker Int’l Inc., 344 F.3d 931, 937-38 (9th Cir.2003) (Section 1367(c) grants federal courts the discretion to dismiss state-law claims when all federal claims have been dismissed). A court, in considering whether to retain supplemental jurisdiction, should consider factors such as “economy, convenience, fairness, and comity,” Acri v. Varian Assocs., 114 F.3d 999, 1001 (9th Cir.1997) (en banc) (internal quotation marks omitted). However, “in the usual case in which all federal-law claims are eliminated before trial, the balance of factors ... will point toward declining to exercise jurisdiction over the remaining state law claims.” Exec. Software N. Am., Inc. v. U.S. Dist. Court, 24 F.3d 1545, 1553 n. 4 (9th Cir.1994) (emphasis omitted), overruled on other grounds by Cal. Dep’t of Water Res. v. Powerex Corp., 533 F.3d 1087 (9th Cir.2008).
Here, the balance of factors weighs in favor of dismissing Plaintiffs remaining state law claims. This case has yet to proceed beyond the pleadings, and thus few judicial resources are wasted by dismissing the case at this stage. Further, dismissal promotes comity by allowing the California courts to interpret state law concerning the state law claims in the first instance. Thus, the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the remaining state law claims — FEHA claim, Bane Act claims, and IIED claim — in Plaintiffs Complaint. See Ove v. Gwinn, 264 F.3d 817, 826 (9th Cir.2001) (court may decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over related state-law claims under subsection (c)(3) once it has dismissed all claims over which it has original jurisdiction.)
Accordingly, because the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction as to Plaintiffs state law claims, Plaintiffs state law claims against Albee are dismissed.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
. The amended Motion to Dismiss, ECF No. 15, is the operative motion. The first Motion to Dismiss, ECF No. 14, was terminated on March 27, 2014.
. Ninth Circuit cases have held that dismissal based on Eleventh Amendment immunity should be analyzed under Rule 12(b)(6) and not as a jurisdictional issue under Rule 12(b)(1). See Elwood v. Drescher, 456 F.3d 943, 949 (9th Cir.2006) (stating that "dismissal based on Eleventh Amendment immunity is not a dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, but instead rests on an affirmative defense.”) (quotation marks and citation omitted); Tritchler v. Cnty. of Lake, 358 F.3d 1150, 1153-54 (9th Cir.2004) (stating that "Eleventh Amendment immunity does not implicate a federal court's subject matter jurisdiction in any ordinary sense and that it should be treated as an affirmative defense.”) (internal quotation marks omitted); Miles v. Cal., 320 F.3d 986, 988-89 (9th Cir.2003) (ruling that "dismissal based on Eleventh Amendment immunity is not a dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction”) (citing Hill v. Blind Indus. and Servs. of Md., 179 F.3d 754, 762 (9th Cir.1999) (concluding that the Eleventh Amendment is not a jurisdictional bar because it is a defense that can be waived by the state)).
