University / DSA assessment
Explore the difficulties affecting your studies and the support that could help.
Support for your studies
A specialist assessment explores the learning difficulties affecting your academic work. The comprehensive report outlines strengths, areas of difficulty and recommended support.
Where the assessment meets the relevant criteria, the report can support an application for Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA). Discuss your university’s requirements and deadlines with Kim before booking. An assessment does not guarantee funding.

Kim’s kind, understanding and person-centred approach made the whole experience positive. She explained the process clearly, and my report arrived promptly. The assessment helped me better understand my needs and provided the information I needed to apply for Disabled Students’ Allowance, making studying at university more manageable. I would highly recommend Kim.
