    If you want to CS you should at least be able to google...
    In Ireland maintenance grants under the Student Grants Scheme are available for undergraduate courses of at least 2 years’ duration in a publicly-funded third-level institution in another EU member state. Depending on your income you may be eligible for a maintenance grant provided that you fulfill the conditions as to residence, age, academic attainments and nationality. You can find detailed information on the range of Irish grants and funds for students in further and higher education on the website www.studentfinance.ie.
    If you wish to attend an undergraduate course outside the Republic of Ireland but within the EU, the course must meet the following conditions;

    - It is a full-time course that leads to a major education and training award, in line with the National Framework of Qualifications or equivalent.
    - It is held in a publicly funded institution.
    - It is at least two years' duration.

    If the course does not meet all of the above criteria then it will not be eligible for funding. Funding is only available for PLC courses in the Republic of Ireland. Courses that take place in countries outside of the EU are not eligible.

    Applicants attending an undergraduate course outside the Republic of Ireland but within the EU are eligible to receive a maintenance grant only.

    This means they may pay you €300-400 a month for 9 months of the year, but you will pay £9000 or €11,486 each year in registration fees.
