Campus Accommodation for students with physical or sensory disabilities
The Access Centre has a limited number of accessible rooms reserved for students who have a physical or sensory disability.
First year students who require an accessible room should contact the Access Centre as soon as possible and no later than 12pm on Friday 24th August. All students requesting an accessible room via the Access Centre must provide documentary evidence of a physical or sensory disability. Rooms are allocated on a "first come first served" basis.
For information regarding fees, payment of fees, or facilities in each residence, please visit the UCD residences website (www.ucd.ie/residences) or contact them directly.
Access Centre students who do not have a physical or sensory disability should apply to UCD Residences for accommodation in the usual way.
