We provide confidential information, advice and guidance to prospective and current disabled students and to staff supporting disabled students.
Our consent process has changed. Please read our updated disclosure and confidentiality statement, especially if you have refused consent to share data previously.
Disability Services has created a video on the support options for disabled students at the University of Bristol. The term ‘disability’ is broader than many people think.

Apply for AEAs
Submit a Study Support Request (SSR) to apply for Alternative Exam Arrangements (AEAs). The deadline for applying for AEAs for the summer resit period has now passed.
