    The €1500 would be covered by the grant, I'm sure your parents could claim back-to-school allowance still depending on your age. Outside of that you'll just have to rely on the grant every few weeks. If the grant is accepted you'll stand to recieve more because you're living in a different county. That being said, its worth giving the Student's Union or reception a ring to see what they can advise.

    You need to get onto your local VEC. They administrate grants in Ireland.

    I'm 20 and my parents are still eligible for back-to-school, so you should be fine there. Ring the VEC to check the status of the application anyway.

    You can also call into Sile in the CHART office which is located beside the main reception area in the Atrium part of the campus. They offer additional support to students in addition to any grants you may receive.
