Part-Time Fee Scheme For Undergraduate Courses

This year the Government has approved a part-time fee scheme for SUSI funding. For programmes to be eligible for this scheme they must lead to an undergraduate major award, such as a Higher Certificate, Ordinary Degree, or Honours Degree. You will need to complete between 30 and 50 credits each academic year, with any remaining credits arranged in your final year. Classes can be attended in-person or through a hybrid format that includes some in-person sessions beyond just registration, enrolment, or exams.

To avail of this scheme an applicant must satisfy various criteria including a means test, residency, nationality, and progression requirements. SUSI are administering the Scheme which is now open for applications for funding for the 2024/25 academic year.
