What is a SUSI grant?

A SUSI grant is a financial support provided by the Irish government to help students cover the cost of higher education.  It is means tested, meaning eligibility is based on household income and other factors.

Successful applicants of the grant can have one or both of the following covered:

1. Maintenance Grant-helps with living expenses like rent, food and transport
2. Fee Grant-covers tuition fees or student contribution fees for approved courses.

SUSI grant applications will open for new applicants on Thursday 3rd April at 12 noon.The applications are made online through the SUSI website (www.susi.ie)  The SUSI website has a brilliant tool call the ‘Eligibility Indicator’ which you can try here This will help you figure out if you might be eligible for the grant or not.

I would recommend an early application, even if you are unsure of your college choice.

The team at SUSI will also be offering an information event on Monday 28th April at 7pm online.Places are limited so be sure to secure yours now by registering at events@susi.ie by 10am on Thursday, 24 April 202
