We help students who are eligible for DSA support overcome barriers to their learning.​

Disabled Student Allowance (DSA)

Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) is support to cover the study-related costs you have because of a mental health problem, long term illness or any other disability. It is paid for by your funding body such as Student Finance England, Student Finance Wales or NHS Student Awards. 

This can be on its own or in addition to any student finance you get. 

As part of the application process you will be asked to attend a Needs Assessment where you can discuss the impact of your disability and what support would be helpful. This can include equipment, software, 1-1 support and travel costs.

We offer Specialist Study Skills and Specialist Mentoring support to students who are eligible for DSA support​.
