Applying

If you are thinking of studying at The University of Sheffield, the University will aim to support you in a number of ways.

In line with the University's Equal Opportunities Policy, your application is considered on an individual basis and no presumptions are made about a disability and how it may affect you in relation to your chosen course. Your academic merit, potential and abilities will be considered first and foremost.

You will be asked on the application form about whether you have a disability and it is helpful to let us know at this stage so that we can aim to support you in the best way possible. Students on some programmes with Fitness to Practice criteria, for example Medicine, will also be required to complete a health questionnaire.
