It's really important to tell your university or college about your individual needs as early as possible – this will ensure any adjustments and support are in place before you arrive.

On your UCAS application, you can share a mental or health condition with your university. This’ll help you get the information and help you may need while at university and help put you at ease.

Universities and colleges welcome students from a diverse range of backgrounds and experience. If you choose to disclose that you are a student with an imprisoned parent it will not negatively impact your application – it gives context to your circumstances.

Students can access a variety of support to manage their mental health and wellbeing in higher education - ranging from help with a specific condition through to ways they can look after their general wellbeing. Some students may be hesitant to tell their university, so we've worked with experts (including Student Minds and the University Mental Health Advisers' Network (UMHAN)) to explain the process of declaration to your students, and offer practical ways to help them manage the transition to independence. It's good to remember that other personal circumstances can create additional challenges and stress, so making sure students have the right support for their needs will offer them the best start to university.

If you have been asked to write a reference for an independent applicant who is not currently attending school or college, please read through the advice below before starting.

Every year, over 100,000 disabled students apply through UCAS to study at a university or college in the UK – including mental health conditions, learning differences, and long-term health conditions.

If your relationship with your parents or carers has broken down (also known as ‘estranged’), there are people you can turn to for help when you research your options, start your application, or think about your transition to university or college.

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.
