    I'm going to the Ulster Bank anyway. They have some pretty good deals for students and that so if I end up moving to Limerick I'll definitely be getting a loan or an account from there! :D

    I'm not entirely sure on actual student loans, but I got an interest free overdraft from Ulster Bank. I think you can get up to €1200 in first year, then it increases each year until you finish, all interest free.

    As regards an actual loan, I'm not entirely sure of rates/amounts. I've heard Ulster Bank have good deals, but I'm not wholly sure tbh.

    Yup! :D Um I'm not sure...kinda hoping < 100 euro a week would be enough (I smoke too though!)
    Not entirely sure about the rates but the overdraft sounds good and it's low interest for students anyway! Wot do you wanna do in UL?
