    Hey there Petalyn, Welcome to our ITTralee forum :)

    I would recommend you just re-phase your query and ask over in the Student Finances forum right here. I am sure you will find the answers you are looking for.


    Good Luck in your 2nd year of your course & on your move btw!

    It won't effect your BTEA.

    However it may effect your grant application. As you're probably aware you are not eligible for the non-adjacent grant but can still apply for a grant to cover your fees.

    If you declare your boyfriend's income in your household income in your grant application it may bring you over the income threshold but since you've already said he's on 300 a week, it should be a problem. I think the (threshold is about 24K)

    I don't see this effecting you at all.

    Good Luck.

    I'm going to close this thread now as the op had started a thread in the Student Finances forum right here.

    @op: Just message me if you would like it re-opened at any stage :)

    Thanks,
