Returning To College Grant

Today I got the good news that I have been accepted back to college to do a H Dip in Sept. While I'm delighted that I got my place I am worried about how I am going to finance my year in college. I've had a look and amn't sure what grant if any I'm entitled to.

I have both a B Sc and a H Dip already done and graduated in 2003.
I have been claiming Jobseekers Benefit since August of last year.
I live at home and would imagine my parents gross income would be ~40,000.
From the guidelines I have read I don't think I qualify for BTEA (H Dip already done)

Does anyone know what grant if any I could be entitled to?

Well done in getting in, that's great.

I'm not so sure about the BTEA, I assume you've probably read this - says if you've any post grad qualifications that you are not entitled to it.

However, you may be eligible for a grant:


I'm reckoning you're eligible for a maintenance grant. Depending on the exactly circumstances you may not get the full amount, but I reckon you should get you're fees at least. Go in to the section on maintenance grant in studentfinance.ie.

Best of luck
