One in five students at Sussex has a disability. Find out about the help available for disabled students, and students with a learning difficulty or ongoing physical or mental health condition.
Getting support for a disability
The first thing to do if you need disability support is tell us.
Disclosing a disability does not count against you when studying at Sussex. It means we can support you.
To get support, you need to provide evidence and give us your consent to work with services across the University.
