DRC News
Monthly Student Digest January 2012
The DRC Monthly Student Digest for January 2012 is now available. The digest contains events, news, job adverts and more, which we think will be of interest to disabled students. The digest is published every month on the DRC website.
Key Dates
Exam Access Arrangements: If you have a diagnosed disability, exam access arrangements must be in place by 31 January 2012. Your application and all necessary evidence must be obtained and submitted to your College Tutor or Tutorial Office by this deadline, for your exams in May/June 2012. Please contact the DRC if you are unsure what evidence is required.
Please be aware that while the DRC is happy to advise students who are seeking exam access arrangements, we do not have a role in making such arrangements.
DRC Events
