Hi Linda
Our institution is much the same as the others. Anyone declaring a
disability on their UCAS form is sent a welcoming letter and an information
leaflet outlining the provision we can make available. The letter also
advises the applicant to contact the Disability Co-ordinator and recommends
a visit. It also explains the DSA and advises the student to apply for this
as early as possible. Hope this helps.

Hi Everyone,
I know it is approaching Xmas and everyone is looking forward to
a break, but I am revising our admissions procedures here at
Queen's and I would appreciate your advice and models of good
of good practice.
The nature of information i was looking includes, - when the
student discloses their disability on the Ucas form, when do
the rest of you contact the student regarding their disability
and support requirements. Do you invite the student to come to
visit you? and at what stage does that happen. Currently before
I took up post, the Admissions Office would have sent some
students information to the Health Service, which we are now
reviewing.
I would appreciate your advice and information
Let me take this opportunity to wish you all a very happy Xmas,
and enjoy the well earned break!
Regards,
Linda
