A
Disabled Students' Allowances are grants (补助金) to help meet the extra costs of studying that students face as a direct result of a disability or specific learning difficulty.
The allowances provide help for full-time, part-time and postgraduate students. The amount you can get does not depend on your household income. You do not have to repay this help.
Do you qualify?
To apply, you will have to show your local authority written proof of your disability from an appropriate medical professional.
If you have a specific learning difficulty such as dyslexia (诵读困难),the local authority may ask you to have an independent assessment carried out to establish this.
Your local authority cannot meet the costs of this assessment. If you cannot afford to pay for it, you can apply to your college or university for help through the Access to Learning Fund.
You can apply if you are studying:
a full-time course that lasts at least one year.
a part-time course that lasts one year and doesn't take more than twice as long to complete as an equivalent(相同的)full-time course.
However, you will not be eligible (有资格的) for Disabled Students' Allowances if you receive a bursary (奖学金) from the NHS (the National Health Service). Bursaries are similar to grants and are usually linked to a certain profession or qualification.
How much do you get?
That will depend on your particular circumstances. If you are a part-time student,the intensity of your course will also affect how much you can receive.
How are they paid?
Student Finance Direct will pay the money into your account as needed, or directly to the supplier of services, for example, your university, college or equipment supplier.
