What support is available?
Our Accessibility and Disability Advisers work with students to identify the support and adjustments they need to study successfully.
They can help you:
- Arrange reasonable adjustments for your studies
- Complete a Study Needs Agreement (SNA)
- Apply for Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA)
- Obtain evidence of a disability or health condition
- Arrange support for placements
- Access specialist disability support services
We aim to remove unnecessary barriers to learning and help you make the most of your time at Herts.
How do I request disability support?
We recommend contacting us as soon as possible after registering at Herts, but you can access support at any time during your studies.
To request support, complete the Academic Support for Your Disability form.
You can also contact Student Wellbeing:

Study Needs Agreement (SNA)
Your Study Needs Agreement (SNA) records any adjustments and recommendations agreed with your adviser.
The SNA helps academic staff and University services understand and support your individual study requirements throughout your course.

Parking support
Parking on campus is limited.
If you have a Blue Badge
You may use accessible parking bays once you have registered for an on-campus parking permit.
If you do not have a Blue Badge
If you cannot use the park and ride service and need to park on campus because of your circumstances, you may be eligible to apply for an Extenuating Circumstances (EC) parking permit.
Please note that an EC permit gives permission to park but does not guarantee a parking space.
For advice, contact Student Wellbeing at studentwellbeing@herts.ac.uk or visit the Parking at Herts page.
