Would I get on disabled student allowance?

I am dear in my right ear and struggle quite a lot to hear people, even with a hearing aid. Would I be likely to receive disabled student allowance?

Hello!
I am also a deaf student which receives DSA. From my experience, I underwent an assessment where someone talked through everything that I struggle with and together we decided what I would need to best support me at my time at university. In my personal opinion I would agree that you should receive DSA, but definitely have a think about what you particularly struggle with before your assessment and make sure you get the help you need. Also when you apply, make sure you submit as much evidence (hospital and diagnoses letters) to help you get an assessment and ultimately the allowance.

Hope this helps and feel free to ask anymore questions,

How generous is it? I've heard it goes up to £25,000 but to me that sounds almost too good to be true. What kind of support do you receive additionally?
