The grant does not pay any fees for courses outside the island of Ireland but you may qualify for the maintenance part of the grant if you have been resident in the state for 3 of the last 5 years and meet the other criteria for being a mature student and you are under the income thresholds.

^^^ im aware of the above but i was wondering was there anything like finance/funds support available in the uk that someone may have done before or know of

...being irish part of the eu there may be a funding system that i can apply for perhaps??

You need to look here..

https://www.gov.uk/student-finance/overview

but just Google could have given you this information.

^^^ again yes i already did and no i'm not entitled to a maintenance grant if you did the research proper!!(only tuition fees)....again i was wondering if anybody has experience studying in the UK particularly London if there is any funding system provided by the EU/UK...please let me know id really appreciate it

Sup08 · 14-03-2015 12:32am

You apply to both!!
SUSI for maintenance and the UK for fees

Do your research proper (ly) if your going to be a third level educated student or get your mommy to do it!!, (oh, sorry you're meant to be a mature student!)

Well if you care to check out my history, you may find I am not a troll and I am quite informative with regard to student grants. (with those that appreciate good advice)
and if my advice was so simpleton, then I guess you must be quite embarrassed it was answered correctly in such a simpleton way.

^^^not at all can't be bothered looking at your history and don't give a flying fart what you are on here..i asked a question and got a sarcastic answer.. now i won't be giving you any medals for this(sorry keep entertaining yourself :P ) but id say its time you got off your little chair.. opened a window and looked outside...There is a world out there if you catch my drift

..wink wink wink

Well unlike you, I do look at a bit of history and it surprises the answers it gives.

In fact female dogs go into heat, not male.. male dogs just react to female dogs that are in heat (hope it's not veterinary you want to study) therefore your 2 male dogs maybe/are/where just into each other ;-).

You asked a question on boards.ie and sometimes the answer maybe simple to some people and not others, but at least the good people of boards, me or others, take the time to answer these questions without judgment, no matter how simple the question or answers may be.
So if you wish to be ungrateful when your question is answered, please don't ask the question in the first place and research it if you can.
