Under the terms of the Student Grant Scheme, grant assistance is awarded to students who meet the prescribed conditions of funding including those relating to nationality, residency, previous academic attainment and means. The Deputy will appreciate that in the absence of all of the relevant details that would be contained in an individual's application, it would not be possible to say if the student referred to by the Deputy would qualify for a student grant.To determine eligibility for the 2014/15 academic year the student should submit an online grant application to Student Universal Support Ireland via www.susi.ie. when the on line application system opens.
