This is a government funded scheme designed to help with the costs incurred as the result of a disability, medical condition, Specific Learning difficulty (SpLD) such as dyslexia or mental health condition.

DSA funding is allocated to the individual student and not the College. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure they engage fully in the process of applying for DSA. The allowance can help pay for study related support, including specialist equipment. The support you get depends on your individual needs and not on income.

How do I apply for DSA? You don’t have to have a confirmed place on your course before you apply for DSA but it is best to apply as soon as possible to help ensure there are no delays to the start of your support. You will be asked to provide proof of your disability, medical health condition, sensory impairment, mental health condition, or specific learning difficulty (e.g. a diagnostic assessment of dyslexia, or letter from a medical professional).

STAY NEAR, GO FAR It’s always made great sense to study closer to home. There are so many factors that make it a very smart investment – from saving on accommodation costs to paying substantially lower tuition fees.

This last year more than ever has highlighted the sheer amount of benefits of choosing a Higher Education provider like Hopwood Hall College and University Centre. Our sprawling campus and unique setup has made us particularly robust to the effects of COVID-19.

In fact, our students now feel they’re at an advantage over those at other institutions!

Our courses help you to develop your critical thinking skills, perfect your research methods and hone your written and oral communication skills in a safe, in-person environment.

It’s a great opportunity to meet people from a variety of backgrounds and form lasting friendships and valuable collaborative partnerships with people and businesses in the area.

In addition, research also shows that people who study Higher Education are more likely to be employed in occupations classed as professional. So if you have a clear career goal and you aspire to reach senior levels in your chosen field, there’s no need to drift too far from home to get there.
