Current Position. The University has a strong record of recruiting students with disabilities. The proportion of the University’s home undergraduate population who have disclosed a disability to the University has increased from 7.6% in 2002-2003 (national average 6.4%) to 9.8% in 2003-2004 (national average 6.9%) to 9.1% in 2004-2005. The University is actively developing and promoting HE opportunities for students with disabilities, either for schemes available at Essex or its partners, or at HE institutions outside the county. It is also working to ensure that more students are given appropriate guidance on the support available to help them reach their full potential whilst in HE.
