financial aid

The University operates a Financial Aid Fund for students. This fund incorporates the Student Assistance Fund. The fund provides assistance towards living expenses, childcare and fees.

Managing money and getting the most out the money we have is a skill. Using a budget tool such as MABS available at http://www.mabs.ie/budgeting-tool/ is very useful. And if you want more advice in making your money stretch and living on a tight budget, you can make an appointment to meet with Cindy Dring, Student Financial Adviser and Health Promotion Officer, Student Services, tel 492364 or email studentfinancialadvicenuigalway.ie

The Student Assistance Fund is designed to support students from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds with ongoing needs for financial support (HEAR, Access, DARE, Disability, and Mature Students) and students with other circumstances giving rise to short or longer-term financial difficulties, including family responsibilities, bereavement, family difficulties, accidents or health problems.
