Student Finances within the EU?

Hakametal · 2014-06-27 21:37:08

I'm going to uni in the Netherlands in September. I want to know if I can get either the Student Grant from SUSI or the Back To Education Allowance (BTEA) for courses outside of Ireland? Note: The course is a progression of what I previously did (Level 5) so in that regard I qualify for BTEA. Thanks in advance!

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.
