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.

This guide was created by Lead Scotland, a charity providing support for disabled people to learn.

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.

A new start can make you feel excited and nervous – there’s a lot to think about.

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.

The Exhibitor Zone contains everything you need when exhibiting at UCAS Discovery events - including the latest updates, handy guides, event-specific information pages, marketing assets and more.
