Students with a disability, injury or medical condition

The Student Support Advisers (SSAs) provide a link between students, Disability Services, your Faculty and the appropriate Academics.
Student Support Advisers help to coordinate the support you need from your faculty whilst you are studying. We can also give you more information about Disability Services and can help to arrange your first meeting with them.
If you are registered with Disability Services and are having difficulties with your studies you should see your faculty SSA or your Disability Liaison Officer as soon as possible.
