Grants
Did you know that you can apply for a grant even before you have been offered a college place?
You can check your eligibility on the SUSI website and if you’re eligible, we recommend that you apply via the SUSI website as soon as possible. If you have already applied for a SUSI grant, you can registration without paying any fees.
Financial Aid
We recognise that some students may face financial difficulties during their time at college and a number of assistance schemes are in place to support such students.
The scheme is designed to help those in severe financial difficulties due to unforeseen circumstances such as the current Covid crisis or students who are disadvantaged and require additional financial support to continue their third-level studies. This funding is available to full-time registered TU Dublin students and certain part-time registered students* and these funds cannot be used for the purposes of registration or tuition fees.
