The University's Disability and Learning Support Service provides advice and support for students with additional support needs joining the University. Make an appointment to meet them to discuss your needs, and they can help to work out an appropriate package of support that matches your personal needs. This might include a note-taker, material captioning or transcription, a BSL interpreter, or additional time for assessments or completing assignments.
