• guide students through the process of applying for university, suggesting strategies for general organisation and for particular aspects of study

• outline how to get the best personally and academically from higher education

• give practical advice on setting up and using support facilities (both human and technological)

• be an accessible text for mainstream lecturers and tutors who need to be aware of the implications of the Disability Discrimination Act.
