About University of Surrey

The University of Surrey has a vibrant, enthusiastic and richly diverse culture. We are committed to creating and maintaining a friendly and welcoming campus-based community where our staff and students are able to benefit from an inclusive and supportive environment enabling them to fully participate in University life.

We want to attract students and staff with high potential to study and work here. As part of that we strive to ensure that the right support is in place for members of our community who are living with a disability, long term health condition, mental health condition or additional learning need.

As part of our pledge to continually make improvements to ensure that the campus is as accessible as possible, we have created a Facilities Improvement and Maintenance Plan to identify and remove any barriers to accessing buildings.

Support for students

The Disability and Neurodiversity Team provide a confidential support service for all disabled students and all students with neurodiverse conditions including specific learning differences.

All prospective students are encouraged to come and meet the Disability and Neurodiversity Team, explore the campus and discuss any specific support needs.
