Confused - Post Grad Funding ??

    Again apologies if this post is in the wrong area but I'm hoping someone is in the same boat as me for a bit of advice.

    I'm considering going back to university to do a HDip in Psychology. I believe that as I already have a degree (I'm an unemployed Architect) that I might have to pay full fees.

    I also don't think I'm eligible for the Back to Education Allowance as I have a degree.

    I'm going to submit a Grant application through studentfinances.ie but will this cover fees too?

    Lastly are there any other sources of funding or is it the case that you just have to pay up in full if you are over 23 (30)?

    Sorry for the rambling list, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Hey dude,

    I think that you're best bet is to ciontact either the CAO or the Postgraduate Applications Centre (PAC).

    The HDips are very streamlined across all colleges in Ireland as far as I know, so once you get a decision it'll probably apply to all colleges running it.
