    Hi...quick question

    Let's say I am given the grant thru SUSI and they give me the top end of the adjacent rate. that amount does not cover the full tuition of my course. Being a non-eu citizen, does anyone know how I might go about lining up the rest of the money I need? From what I can gather, I would not be covered by the governments free fees initiative. I have a stamp 4 but not a stamp "4EUFAM"

    Thank you

    If you dont qualify for free fees you dont qualify for SUSI. You need to pay Student Contribution (€2750) AND tuition (€2000-8000) dependent on course.

    SUSI and grants have differing qualifying criteria!!!!

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Did you check with the college you applied to what your fee status will be.

    Thank You Joey! I was thinking the criteria was different because i had filled out the forms for SUSI and everything seems to be going as I expected. There have been no red flags for me when dealing with SUSI.

    I spoke with the university yesterday and they sent me an email today asking for me to fill out a form so that they can tell me what the fees would be according to my residential status.
