University accessibility support should be discussed before enrolment, SIM Global Education said on October 26, 2026, noting that available arrangements depend on the university associated with each programme.

Key Takeaways

  • SIM encourages students with disabilities to contact its Student Development team early, even if formal documentation or a diagnosis is not yet available.
  • Campus facilities include ramps and accessible toilets, while a lecturer training series introduced in 2026 addresses diverse learning needs.

University accessibility varies by programme

SIM Global Education said students should explore support for their individual circumstances before starting their studies. An early discussion does not guarantee that every requested arrangement will be available.

Because provisions depend on the university associated with a programme, students comparing courses may need to check the arrangements for each qualification rather than assume they are identical.

Campus access and classroom learning

SIM lists ramps, stair lifts, accessible toilets and parking spaces among its campus provisions. It also acknowledges that physical accessibility gaps may remain and provides a channel for students to raise barriers.

Beyond physical access, SIM said its Centre for Teaching & Learning introduced a training series in 2026 to help lecturers respond to students with special needs and diverse learning profiles.

The announcement comes as Singapore’s Enabling Masterplan 2030 includes an aspiration to expand access to lifelong learning opportunities and resources for persons with disabilities.
