Could I get DSA?

I know they've changed DSA which has kind of concerned me, they don't award laptops any more. I have adhd, slow processing, extremely bad handwriting (I have to use the schools word processor) so I get extra time, mentoring and tutoring, basically in general help with school. I know they've changed the DSA, I was wondering would I still get a note taker, dictaphone etc... I was particularly concerned about the laptop because I can't afford one and don't have my own. Does anyone know what provision is like at Unis (I'm applying for top unis) York, oxford bath birmingham durham.
You have to pay the first £200 I think it is for a laptop. But you won't get one because you don't have one. You'll only get one, if for example, you require certain software.

As it stand at the moment no changes have been made to DSA and any suggested changes have been postponed to 2016/17.There has been a note about students paying £200 towards the cost of a laptop banded about but this is not in force yet.
