Disabled Students' Allowance: Wales

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.

Disabled students: Financial support

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.

Disabled students: Preparing for open days and visits

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.

Discover Subjects

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.

Discovery Days

Our Discovery Days aim is to transform students’ decisions about their post-school next steps from an overwhelming choice to something they feel control over. You have the chance to engage and inspire them as they go through this journey.
