Does SUSI cover transport costs?

I want to go to Carlow IT next year but the cost of transport is turning me off. Do SUSI cover this cost? If not, is there any other way to lessen the cost (Carlow Access program?) Also can anyone tell me what the average maintainance per month is for a student? I'd just like to get an idea before I decide on a college.

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.
