Grant for studying in UK? Mature Student

mstu · 2010-04-07 15:54:51

Hi I'm going back to Uni in September and I'm applying for finances now What are my options? I'll be 25 when I go back, doing a degree, and have been working in a low paid media job for the last 3 years Is there any grants I could apply to in Ireland as I am indeed Irish. Maybe an EU grant. Thanks

My sister did her degree in the UK, finishing 3 years ago and got a grant from her local authority in Ireland subject to a means test. If this is still the case you just need to ensure that the college/university is recognised. Check studentfinance.ie under maintenance grants.
