The data provided in the table are in respect of students who received a grant from SUSI the centralised grant awarding authority, which was established in 2012. It does not encompass data relating to the 66 awarding authorities who have continued to process renewal applications on a transitionary basis, as their data are not collated in the format requested by the Deputy.
The table provides a breakdown of the awards for each of the academic years 2014/15 to 2016/17 (provisional) in the categories requested by the Deputy.
The data in the tables have been supplied to my Department by SUSI.
