If you’ve already applied for student finance
Sign in to your student finance account to start your DSA application.
If you do not have an online account because you applied for student finance by post, fill in a DSA1 form.
If you have not applied for student finance
If you do not need student finance, you can fill in a DSA1 form to apply just for DSA.
If you need to reclaim expenses
Use the claim form for the academic year the expenses relate to. You can reclaim expenses at any point in the academic year.
If you do not have the evidence to prove your eligibility for DSA
A medical professional needs to provide information about your disability on the evidence form. This cannot be used to confirm a specific learning difficulty.
