Checking your eligibility for funding for disability-related support
Almost every postgraduate researcher (PGR) who is registered with Disability Services will be eligible for funding to pay for their disability-related support whilst they are studying. This funding can pay for specialist equipment and software, and one-to-one support. You can find out more about the types of support you may be eligible for on our PGR webpage.
The funding you are likely to be eligible for will depend on your residency status (where your permanent home address is located) and the way in which you are funding your studies (e.g. through a postgraduate doctoral loan, a UKRI Research Council, or self-funded).
The aim of this PGR Funding Checker is to help you identify which disability-related funding you are likely to be eligible for, and to advise you on how you can apply for this funding.
