Considering your support needs when applying for year abroad
If you have support needs during your year abroad, please note no information will be shared with the Student Mobility team at Warwick of any existing support arrangements, therefore it is your responsibility to provide your host with this. Some cultures do have different approaches therefore different levels of support may be available. This should be considered ahead of completing this departmental application. Your Departmental Study Abroad Coordinator has information about support needs that can be accommodated at different host universities that we have received.
To have the best chance of support being provided, you should declare your needs with your host early in the process once you know where you have been allocated.
If you have a disability or long term health condition then you can engage with Disability Services at Warwick to secure a copy of your reasonable adjustment plan that you may wish to share with your host/use as a basis for discussions about your support needs.
If you think you may have support needs but you do not have an existing support plan, consider completing the support plan template here to use as a basis of discussion with Wellbeing Services to consider what adjustments you could request to support your needs. You can then use this as a basis of discussions with your host.
We encourage open conversations and disclosure. If you do not disclose your disability and/or long term health condition during the application process, any support you may need could be delayed or limited.
