    In one swift sentance they'll tell you to píss off.

    However apply to the DFES, in the UK. You can get your fees paid in full. The British government gets money from the eu for the likes of you.


    I know all this becuase I am in the UK.

    No, it's not the LEA..... AFAIK, I could be wrong, the LEA is an english based grant thingy. The DFES is european money. You could also apply to the loans company.... I'm not sure if they will give student loans to Irish students.
