Where can I look for disability-related study support in higher education in Wales?
Students may know that support exists but not whether it comes from Student Finance Wales, their university or college, a disability service or another route, and academic-year rules can change.
Scope before you act
Wales This scope signal is derived from the governed question wording for orientation only. It is not an eligibility, legal or clinical determination.
Current understanding
Student Finance Wales provides the current Disabled Students' Allowance route recorded in the ND Oracle catalogue for disability-related higher-education study support for students from Wales. Eligibility, evidence requirements and the support approved depend on the current academic-year rules and individual circumstances. University or college disability and accessibility support can exist alongside DSA.
