    You wont be entitled to a maintenance grant as they were all cut for postgrads in the last budget. Yu can apply to SUSI (just google susi) with an online application and then they will means test your income (or your parents if you're 23 or under) and you may be entitled to free fees. The fact that you had a grant before makes no difference, they assess you again if it's a new course.
