A new online only grant applications system is being introduced for the academic year 2012/13. All new applications will be made online to a single awarding authority, Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI - a division of the City of Dublin VEC) which will administer the Student Grant Scheme on behalf of my Department. The online facility will be available through the website www.studentfinance.ie and is expected to go live early next week on completion of the user acceptance testing phase.

Updates are available on the studentfinance.ie website on an ongoing basis.
