    Does anybody know how long roughly SUSI will inform people if they are eligible for the grant after the CAO offers are out and a course has been accepted by the student? I am aware they will automatically know if you have accepted a course through the CAO, but how long then until they will let you know if you are eligible or not? I sent off additional documentation that was requested and was my assessment is 100% completed. Will it be a few days or a few weeks?? Thanks in advance.

    After my Leaving Cert last year I found out that I was eligible for the grant after about 2 weeks after the results came out.

    Thanks! I should have said I'm applying as a mature student so I wont be waiting on results. But its probably the same length of time..

    CAO applicants are provisionally awarded before the CAO results are out if fully assessed.
    This is updated on the applicants tracker.

    Thanks! All thats highlighted in yellow at the bottom of mine is "Application queued for final assessment" Its like that for a month now. So annoying how slow it is. I've sent so many emails trying to get it sped up...No joy.

    They asked me for the same documentation. But that was the 7th of July. My online application states it was received back a week later. I sent a few emails too just to be sure I wasn't missing anymore documentation and they assured me I am not. Just a case of waiting for them to get around to it.. I know they have a lot of applications to get through but I start college in 4 weeks and would like to know if I'll eligible for free fees or not so I can sort out a loan etc.. Frustrating
