Grant Regulations

92Grainne1992

Hi everyone, I've searched high and low for grant regulations that makes sense to me. In the Academic year 2011/12 I got the full non adjacent grant, and studied for a year in UL. It was only a level 6 and I didn't go back to finish the second year of it, not what I wanted to do.

When I went for the FETAC, I didnt get the grant on the basis that I had already got the full grant the year before, and the level I completed this year was a Level 5. However this year (2013/14) I hope to go into a level 8 to start another degree. Am I eligible for the grant this year, even though a first year in university has already been paid for? My guidance counsellors in College weren't even too sure.... They seem to think I'll get it because I'm "progressing to a higher level"

Anyone have any idea if I'll qualify?

My guess (and it is an informed guess) would be probably yes but obviously it depends on the new criteria which have only just been published in the last day or two
