We are currently piloting a scheme where all non-UK students receive an assessment of need and then up to £10kpa of support mirroring UK DSA provision.
Let me know if you need more detail.

Subject: International students and reasonable adjustments
Can I ask what support in terms of reasonable adjustments are made for international students at your institutions?
Is there a central fund to cover costs for international students?
Do schools have their own funds for any reasonable adjustments not covered by the DSA or other funds?
Many thanks
