Students

If you are applying to study at the University of Edinburgh and you have a disability, learning difference, neurodiverse or health condition that may impact on your studies, please make contact with the Disability and Learning Support Service, to discuss your support needs.

We want to provide you with the support that you require. To do this, we need you to provide suitable supporting documentation of your disability, neurodiverse or health condition or specific learning difference.

The Service can help you to apply for non-means assessed allowances intended to cover the extra costs or expenses that you may incur while studying and which are a direct result of your disability.

We can offer a range of support based on your individual needs and how your disability, learning difference, neurodiverse or health condition affects your studies.

Support available to students whose studies are affected by long-term mental health and/or autism-related conditions.

Information about a social/information group for students with Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC).

An opportunity for postgraduate research (PGR) students with a mental health or autism diagnosis, who are already registered with the Service, to meet together regularly in a supportive environment to discuss the issues that are important to them.

Data protection, record requests and complaints procedures.
