All students in receipt of Higher Education Grants or VEC Grants are required to pay the Student Levy of €93.00 only which is not covered by the Grant Scheme. This sum together with a matching amount from the University will be used for the development of student sports, social and recreational facilities.
Applications for Maintenance Grants and Student Services Charge must be made to your Local Authority. Before registration can be completed, written confirmation of your award from the Local Authority must be produced. In some cases this evidence will be available early in October but in other cases not until late October. If the latter is the case students have the option of paying the Student Contribution of €2,000.00 . Any such payment will be refunded in full if a grant is subsequently awarded but ONLY when the Local Authority make a payment to the University on your behalf.
Refund cheques to grant holders, who have paid fees pending approval of a grant, are issued only when the University has received fee payment from the Grant Authority. These refunds will be issued automatically to the students home address and do not need to be claimed from the University.
