Officials in my Department have confirmed with Student Universal Support Ireland that the grant application of the student referred to by the Deputy was refused and has been appealed to SUSI on 20th December, 2013. The appeal will be dealt with as soon as possible and the student will be informed directly of the outcome.

Where an individual applicant has had an appeal turned down in writing by SUSI and remains of the view that the scheme has not been interpreted correctly in his/her case, an appeal form outlining the position may be submitted by the applicant to the independent Student Grants Appeals Board. The relevant appeal form is available to download from .
