Action needed on Gaeltacht fees for Hibernia students

[…]to the Union of Students in Ireland. No student should be charged an extra fee to complete a mandatory and integral part of their college course and USI is calling on Ministers Simon Harris, Norma Foley and Catherine Martin to ensure this is the case for students of Hibernia College.

However, students in Hibernia College are ineligible for this grant as Hibernia is a private college, something […]

Budget 2021 ignores barriers preventing student access to higher education in favour of piecemeal one-off funding

[…]The €250 payment for each student is welcomed and goes some way to acknowledging the impact that COVID-19 has had on the financial situation of students and their families but it does not recognise the longer term financial pressures that students face. It is vital this payment is made quickly as students are struggling to make ends meet as we speak. The full review of SUSI which was announced today is also welcome.
