[mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Caroline Davies Sent: 30 May 2007 11:16 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Number of students with an ASC in HE Dear Harriet, Check out the HESA data at http://www.hesa.ac.uk/holisdocs/pubinfo/student/disab0506.htm. for enrolled disabled students. Also UCAS data for disabled applicants http://www.ucas.com/figures/ucasdata/disability/index.html#show - the reason there is no data for 2001 and 2002 is because the ASD category replaced the 'needs personal care' one. All bound to be underestimates! regards, Caroline ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harriet Cannon" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2007 9:00 AM Subject: Number of students with an ASC in HE Dear All, Does anybody have any figures for the (approximate) number of students with an Autism Spectrum Condition currently in UK Higher Education? Or any ideas where to look for such figures? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
