%JTBCJMJUZ&YUFOEFE-FBSOJOH4VQQPSU/FFET
As a new student to the College, you will receive a
programme of induction. The nature and duration
of the induction provided will be related to your
needs.
Moray College UHI welcomes applications from those with a disability. We will make
every reasonable effort to provide, or arrange to provide, any necessary support,
adaptations, equipment and staff development to ensure that disabled students are
not disadvantaged.
The aims of induction are to allow you to confirm
in your own mind that you have made the correct
choice of college and course and to ensure that
you are helped to prepare to meet the demands of
your chosen course of study. In order for this to be
realised, you will be provided with key information
relating to the College as a whole and to your course
in particular.
If you have a disability or learning difficulty of any kind, you may need additional support
to succeed in your studies. We recognise those needs are individual to you, so we try to
ensure that the support given is designed to suit you. We offer advice and additional
support if you have any of the following:
4UVEFOU"EWJTFST

Students are allocated a named Student Adviser/
Personal Academic Tutor during induction. They
will help each student to recognise and clarify the
goals he/she hopes to achieve. Students will have
regular timetabled group tutorial sessions as well
as an opportunity to talk to their Student Adviser/
Personal Academic Tutor on an individual basis.
Student Advisers/Personal Academic Tutors offer
guidance and support throughout the duration of
the course, they are the first person to turn to if you
are experiencing academic or personal problems
and together the student and Student Adviser/
Personal Academic Tutor can seek appropriate
solutions.

We would like to encourage you to disclose any disability/extended learning support
needs at the earliest opportunity to enable staff to offer advice and make any necessary
adjustments.
If you would like to discuss any issues relating to support you feel you may require if you
became a student at Moray College UHI then please don’t hesitate to contact:

you should apply for it now.
You can use your ILA to help with the course fees
of those Moray College UHI courses within this

your ILA in place before you commence a course – we
cannot adjust fees for the ILA scheme after you have
started a course.
