Other support that we can offer is detailed below and you can contact us by emailing Disability Support Services where you will be allocated a Disability Adviser to discuss your support with you.

• Accommodation - Please inform us early of your condition so we can give you options and help you identify suitable accommodation on campus.  Once at the University, we can also talk to staff in halls of residence on your behalf to discuss any concerns you may have.
• Transition summer school – We run a Transition Summer School to help with your start at the University.  This two-day online event occurs before the beginning of term and provides you with the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about different aspects of the university. It covers different areas of support, information about teaching, societies and amenities on campus, advice about assessments and university systems, and an introduction to inclusive sports and the Autism Social Network. 
• Funding for external support - We can advise how to apply for a Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) to fund specialist mentoring, study skills support and software to help you with organisation and time management. 
• Support in your academic school - We can liaise with your school's Disability Liaison Officer and Support and Wellbeing Officers to help you with any questions related to your course.
• Enhanced Library Support provides support from staff in using the library and its facilities. 
• Clubs and Societies - We recognise that meeting new people can be difficult.  We can help you find Students' Union clubs and societies that match your interests and help you find likeminded people.
• Department of Sport - We can outline the range of sports available at the University and help arrange induction sessions at the sports centres.  Popular activities include climbing, martial arts, gym and archery.
• Autism Social Network - The aim of this network is to promote a sense of community amongst autistic students and to create a fun environment for students to share their experiences of university life.
  

With the above support, we believe autistic students can flourish at the University of Nottingham, achieving success in their studies while enjoying university life.
