Disability drop-in sessions (during semesters)
Got a disability-related question? Come along to a drop-in session to chat to one of our practitioners. Sessions run every week and are open to all students (details below). You do not need to register or have been registered with Disability Services to attend.
Drop-ins take place every week in the Sally Baldwin Buildings, Block D at the following days and times.
- Tuesday: 11am to 12 noon
- Wednesday: 2pm to 3pm
- Thursday: 12 noon to 1pm
Any changes to times/locations, including additional sessions at the start of a semester, will be shared in Student News and the Things to Know email.
Drop-ins are suitable for current University of York students who have quick queries on:
- What support is available?
- Is my medical evidence sufficient?
- How do I apply for DSA?
- I want to drop off some paperwork
You do not need to be registered or register with Disability Services to attend a drop-in.
When is the Disability Services drop-in not suitable?
Drop-ins are not an alternative to a meeting with your advisor. You should contact Disability Services directly if you need to discuss something more in-depth, for example:
- I need to talk about my student support plan
- My requirements have changed
- My adjustments are not working and need to be reviewed
