Student Grants

Students may be eligible for a means tested maintenance grant under the Maintenance Grants Scheme for students attending Post Leaving Certificate Courses. General information and application details may be obtained on www.susi.ie.

You can submit your application for a Maintenance Grant once you have secured a College place. Candidates are advised to apply for a grant as soon as they have secured a College place in order to have time to submit all documents required.
