Galway East TD and Minister for Rural Affairs Seán Canney has called on eligible students to apply for the Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) grants for the 2020-2021 academic year.
Minister Canney said: “Online applications opened today (Thursday April 23) and all those new to the system and who feel they may qualify for a grant should apply.
“It is important that people remember that although we are living in exceptional circumstances with the COVID-19 virus, that normal processes continue.
“To check whether students qualify or to find out more information, people can visit the SUSI website at www.susi.ie .
“SUSI is anticipating a high number of applications so students should apply as soon as possible.
“The website includes an eligibility reckoner to help applicants assess their qualification for funding and a guide on how to apply.”
