    Hi all,

    I'm expecting to be offered a place on a masters within the next couple of weeks.

    I'm also 99.99% sure I will qualify to have my fees paid by the government based on researching the requirements needed for this. I have sent everything off, so I'm just wanting to hear confirmation.

    My question is this - the masters will require me to pay a €500 deposit to ensure my place on the course, and this is part of the €6,250 (or thereabouts) fee. Presuming I qualify to have my fees paid, will I have to pay the €500 and then receive this back from SUSI, or will SUSI sort it out with the college once I send in evidence of them covering my fees?

    Thanks :)

    Hi Paully D,

    Just to confirm what you have been told. If you pay the deposit and get awarded the grant we will release your fee grant to the college in one lump sum. The college will then reimburse you any payments you have made.

    If you have any other queries please don't hesitate to ask.

    Kind regards,
    Aoife,

    Thanks for the response Aoife, much appreciated.

    On a slightly separate note, do you have any idea when SuSi will be sending out letters to confirm whether or not I will have my fees paid for me?

    Thanks.

    Hi Paully D,

    I don't know what stage of the application process you're at. If you would like to mail me your details I can check your status for you.

    I will need the following details to do so: W reference number, D.O.B, Address, Mother's Maiden Name:
