this is amazing and so helpful! thank you so much for being so honest and open, i'm new to dsa and it's so useful hearing about your experience and how it all works! ❤
Hi! I'm going into my first year of University this September and I've applied for DSA but am yet to hear back the outcome. I have a working HP computer but I would find it easier to use an iPad to take notes in lectures and draw/ plan out stuff. Do you think DSA will provide me with a relatively cheap iPad or is this unlikely? Thx Also do you get to keep all the technology they give you once you graduate or do you have to return it back ?
Hi so they don't provide iPads (as far as I'm aware), but you can get a cheap one from CEX, mine was about £80 and still functions fine. And you get to keep all the technology, no giving it back (I think you may give it back if you drop out but not 100% sure)
Good to hear what you've been eligible for with dsa. In my first year, I got approved for DSA for my ADHD, then got an ASD diagnosis halfway though the year and got that approved (though what they could provide for ASD was virtuallythe same as ADHD). This year, I've added POTS to the list, so have a review this week! Also, yes, keep going to with PIP. I just had mine approved for ADHD, ASD, POTS, and Anxiety :) Good luck!
