    Your masters will be considered a new course so you will have to submit all the grant forms again. Grants for Postgrad courses will be limited for next year. There is no maintenance aspect of the grant. It is now exclusively a fee grant.

    Students who qualify for the special top up rate grant will have their full fees paid and a limited number of students on low incomes will get a €2000 contribution towards their fees.

    do you mean they'll get 2000 towards their living fees? or just extra towars the cost of a masters?

    2000 towards the fees of the masters paid direct to the college

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
