Diagnostic radiographers use state-of-the-art technology to diagnose patients and make sure they receive the right treatment to help them on their road to recovery.

Every year, over 100,000 disabled students (also known as students with special educational needs and disabilities, or SEND for short) apply through UCAS to study at a university or college in the UK – including mental health conditions, learning differences, and long-term health conditions. Students can access a range of support to help them succeed with their studies, day-to-day activities, travel, and lifestyle.

The Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) aims to ensure everyone has the support and adjustments they need to succeed during their studies. This information is relevant to students who normally live in Wales.

Having a disability or mental health condition might mean incurring additional costs (e.g. access to specialist equipment) when accessing higher education. But don’t worry, there is financial support available.

Open days are a valuable way of finding out about a university or college first-hand – you can tour the facilities, speak to staff and current students, and really get a feel for whether you would like to study there.

Our best advice: start your research early. Alongside your research into courses and universities, you may also need to take your individual support needs into account when making your choices.

Connect with students as they find out more about their subject of interest and translate ideas into more concrete plans, at our Discover Subjects events.

As headline sponsor of our Discovery events portfolio, your organisation can be at the front of the minds of the hundreds of thousands of young people we reach during their journey to higher education.

If you're applying to higher education as a refugee, asylum seeker or with an insecure immigration status, there may be support available to help you. This page has been created in collaboration with Refugee Education UK, STAR Network and We Belong.

Higher education courses can be studied in flexible ways. There are different study types, work combinations, and part-time options.
