Disabled students

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.

Displaced students

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.

Entry requirements

Entry requirements for UK courses

Entry requirements are formal criteria which you must meet to be considered for a university course. Universities and colleges set their own entry requirements for their courses, to ensure you have the right skills and knowledge to successfully complete the course.
