How many students with disabilities study higher education in Austria

2011-11-22T23:50:23Z

This question is rather hard to answer, as data concerning disability or chronic illness are not collected and/or evaluated when a student is applying for university or higher education. The Austrian “Sozialerhebung 2002” includes an extra part in order to assess the extent of students with disabilities in HE. The students have to answer questions in a self-assessment form.

They have to evaluate whether they are themselves affected by disability, chronic illness or any health impairment. The findings are that 11,9% of all students are affected by a health impairment. 1% of all students in Austria characterise themselves as disabled, 7,6% call themselves chronically ill and 3,3 % say that they have other health impairments.

In Austria there are 616 students with disabilities. The percentage of blind and partially sighted students is 14.4% - that means that in Austria there are about 88 blind and partially sighted students.

Help with credit card Machine

First, this probably isnt the right area to post this. Sorry, but im desperate. You users seem to be good with with computer related equipment. We have a credit card machine and everything was working perfect until we went from comcast cable to DSL. Our credit card terminal now will NOT connect through ethernet..only dial up. We have checked our router that it is plugged into and the port is flickering so we know its connected. All of our desktops connect to the web all day long without issues .Anyone have any ideas!?!? Thanks in advance!

Legislation

2011-11-22T23:44:12Z

- The Equal Status Act 2000
- The Disabilities Act 2004

This legislation also applies to foreign students, but they cannot access funding for supports in Ireland. Any supports the student requires related to the impact of their impairment must be funded by the relevant agency in their country of origin.
