Help for students with disabilities
If you are a student with disabilities there are a number of organisations that work tirelessly to ensure that you are not disadvantaged either at your place of study or employment. If you have an impairment, health condition
(including mental health conditions) or a specific learning difficulty
like dyslexia, you may also be entitled to claim extra financial help as a
student. This is paid on top of anything you get through the standard
student finance package. Check out these organisations to see how they might be able to help you.
Financial help for students with disabilities - Government info on grants and allowances.
DirectGov - info on financial help for students with disabilities.
Next Step - more information on allowances and Residential Training Colleges.
Your University Careers Service will also have access to helpful contacts and information. We like this webpage for students with disabilities at the University of York.
