Tell us about your disability

There are a wide range of individual adjustments and study support available for disabled students.

We encourage you to meet with a Disability Adviser in order to determine what support might be appropriate for you at Warwick,

Remember to bring supporting evidence

We will ask you to provide relevant supporting evidence to inform the discussion we will have with you about support and reasonable adjustments. That could be:

  • a full diagnostic report for Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs).
  • a psychiatric report.
  • a medical letter.

If you don't have any evidence, you can ask a medical professional to provide information through a medical evidence form.


Support that is appropriate to you and your individual circumstances

There may be times during your university experience that you need someone to discuss your progression, or how your circumstances have changed. Because each student's experience of disability is unique, the support you receive will be tailored to your particular needs. Explore the many ways we can help you below.
