Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA)

Your university's student services can tell you about the support available and how to apply for a DSA. This is a grant which can help pay the extra essential costs you may have as a direct result of specific learning differences (SpLDs).

To apply for a DSA, you will need a diagnostic assessment report from an accredited psychologist or specialist teacher.

More information about the DSA can be found in the DfES leaflet Bridging the Gap:
