University advice - rights and adjustments

I missed my schooling due to being in hospital. I have decided I would like to go to university to study Biomedical Science. To prepare for this I am doing 2 years of open university and taking functional skills exams.
However on contacting my two local universitys I'm feeling discouraged.
Due to my health I need a part time course and although that will be hard to manage I feel I can. However after explaining this to both universitys they have told me I can only do it full time. Can courses be adjusted for people like me that need less hours?

I would also suggest you start using assistive technology to make your studying easier. We recommend MyStudyBar, which is free and can be put onto a USB stick for easy transportation. You can find more info here: https://www.eduapps.org/
Hope this helps
