Student Grant Applications
All Undergraduate and Taught Postgraduate students are required to go online to register their attendance on their programme with TUS. During this online process you will be asked whether you have applied for a SUSI grant or not and prompted to input your SUSI application number.
Important Notice
TUS can only confirm your student status once you have completed your online registration and your status on the student records system is Temporary Registered or Fully Registered.
To avoid delays, it is essential that you complete your online registration for your TUS programme as soon as it opens.
Please note: If you are a student with repeat examinations or you are returning from placement and are due to go before the Autumn Examination Board, there may be delays in the processing of your SUSI grant and maintenance payments. This is because TUS cannot confirm your registration with SUSI until your status on the student records system is Temporary Registered.
At the end of the online registration process, students awaiting a SUSI grant should click on the “Pay Later” option. This will give the student a status of “Temporary Registered”. Please note, that a student will not be fully registered until their fees are paid in full.
Students have until the 31 October 2026 to get a decision on their grant. If they have not been awarded a grant by this date, to avoid late payment penalties from TUS, students will be required to either pay 50% of their fees or set up an agreed, signed instalment plan with the Grants & Fees Office (See Instalment Plan section of website). Any surplus fees paid by the student will be refunded to them once their SUSI grant has been awarded.
Once the student has been awarded their grant by SUSI, a file will be emailed to the Grants Officer in TUS to be verified, this file is then returned to SUSI.

IMPORTANT: Please note that under the Data Protection Acts, TUS has no dealings or correspondence with SUSI in relation to individual applications, renewals or appeals. SUSI only informs TUS Midwest if a student has been awarded a grant, and the amount of the grant awarded. The onus is on the student to ensure that their SUSI grant has been awarded to TUS on their behalf.
