    Would i be able to get a personnal grant or sign on the dole if I was to move to college.. I am not eligible for a grant as it is and my parents will not give me any money so i was wondering is there an alternative for a self sufficent student seeing as my parents will nt b playing a part in my life nymore?

    Have you been on the dole for a year? If so speak to your Social Welfare office about applying for the BTEA. You might be able to apply for a grant - I'm sure this isn't the first time they've come across someone who's parents won't support them though college. It's won't be enough to live on mind you.
