Students at Downing are admitted on our assessment of their academic potential to do well in the course they wish to study. We are happy to discuss with you the sort of support that you may require at any time.
It is, however, sensible to get in touch with us at an early stage to discuss the help you need and to look at the facilities that we can offer. We have six adapted en suite rooms, three usually reserved for graduate students. In addition we have adapted rooms for students with hearing impairments and hearing loops in the Library, Porters’ Lodge, administration offices and all large halls and theatres. Clear Braille signage is widespread throughout the College.

The University’s Disability Resource Centre can provide excellent support and advice and we would encourage you to contact them before you send in your formal application. Specialist advice on dyslexia is also available from the Disability Resource Centre.
