Procedures for students
Procedure to be recognised as a student with fewer opportunities
Procedure to be recognised as a student with a disability
What is the procedure to be recognised as a student with a disability?
Students in need of facilitation are requested to submit an electronic application form for this. Along with the application you must upload documentation / assessment from the therapist / specialist confirming the need for facilitation.
The form is available on the intranet after you are registered as a student.
If you need preparation already at the start of your studies, please contact the study counsellor for your studies. You will find an overview of study guides on all our study offer pages.
The study counsellor, in collaboration with you and any other parties involved in and outside USN, will try to find good solutions.
If you cannot find your study counsellor or have general questions about facilitation, you can send an email to [email protected].
