Disability Support
The Disability Support team can provide advice and support to UCD students with permanent and long-term disabilities. Students must provide verified documentation and attend a short meeting called a Needs Assessment to receive in-class and exam support.
Financial Supports
UCD Access and Lifelong Learning recognise that many students could not succeed in university without some financial support.
