Disability and neurodiversity support
The Disability and Neurodiversity Service offers information, advice and specialist support to students with a disability, neurodivergence, or long-term medical or mental health condition.
Take a look at our guide for more information about the support we can offer, including:
- Welcome events to support your transition to university life
- One-to-one study skills and mentoring sessions
- Peer support groups
- Advice on applying for the Disabled Students’ Allowance from Student Finance
- Reasonable adjustments (e.g. exam and timetabling arrangements)
- Specialist support for degree apprentices
We have also included information about wider support services and facilities across ARU, such as how to apply for accommodation/parking on medical grounds, expectations for inclusive teaching practices, and details of other teams within Student and Library Services that you may find helpful.
