Disabled Students Allowance

If you are a higher education student living in England, you can apply for a Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA) if you have a disability, including a:

• long-term health condition
• mental health condition
• specific learning difficulty, eg dyslexia
• You must meet the definition of disability under the Equality Act 2010.
  
  The support you get depends on your individual needs and not on income.
