About the Assessment Centre
The dedicated assessment room is equipped with the latest specialist equipment and technology. Our staff will guide you through the assessment and any training you need.
What is a DSA assessment?
If you are disabled and a student, or applying to study, you may be able to receive a Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA). This is a grant towards the cost of special equipment and other support you need for your course.
When you have successfully applied for a DSA, you will need to arrange to have an assessment, which will identify your study needs.
