    So I dropped out of college in my first year in March of 2014. I was receiving a full Susi payment (€650 a month).

    I was 19 at the time and just wondering how that will affect my chaces of getting another grant for my first year of another course? I dont intend on going back to college until 2016/17 academic year.

    You will not be eligible for any fees for your first year and if eligible you will receive the remaining maintenance payments from March onwards.

    You must have a break of 5 years from your studies to be eligible for a full grant for first year again. This includes any study that leads to a major award on the NFQ, including some apprenticeships.
