Disability Services - helping you achieve your goals

Amidst all the excitement of starting a new year at Uni, whether its your first year here or you are a continuing student it can be easy to overlook issues that may impact on your study.

If you have a disability, medical condition or even a short term injury or illness, you may not have thought about how this could affect your studies. Even if you think you will manage fine it may be worth discussing your situation with the Disability Adviser in the Learning and Teaching Unit as soon as possible to avoid possible problems further down the track, e.g. sitting exams.

The Disability Adviser can;

  • provide information and advice about disability services
  • develop individual Disability Access Plans
  • provide a range of services and equipment
  • support your negotiations with academic staff
If you think any of the above apply to you please make an appointment to see the Disability Adviser ph: 8302 5006.

Good luck with your studies.

Carolyn Donlan
Disability Adviser
