The University of Bath is happy to receive applications from disabled students and we encourage you to enter your disability/impairment or condition in the appropriate place on the UCAS form. This will enable us to send you relevant information and advice.
Financial Support Student Disability Advice provide advice and support for UK students seeking the Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA), which is a non-means tested government grant available to fund study related support. We can guide you through the process as well as assisting you to implement any support you are recommended. This might include alternative exam arrangements, support workers or equipment.
EU and International students are not eligible for the Disabled Students’ Allowance, so it is important that disabled students from overseas make contact with Student Disability Advice well in advance of starting at Bath so that we can appropriately advise you. Further information is available from our web pages:
www.bath.ac.uk/disabilityadvice/prospective/international
The Students’ Union supports a student-run group called ACCESS for all students with any sort of disability, medical condition or learning difference – or with an interest in learning more about them. ACCESS also campaigns and raises awareness of disability within the university and amongst students.
