Students will be entitled to higher maintenance grants from today.
All SUSI recipients will see an increase of at least 10% to their income.
The rate of increase depends on what band a student falls under and whether their grant is adjacent or non-adjacent.
Whether you're adjacent or non-adjacent depends on how far you live from the college or university you are studying in.
For example, recipients of a Band 4 adjacent grant will see an increase of €28 to their grant.
But non-adjacent Special grant recipients will see increases of €476.
Those entitled to an ordinary SUSI maintenance grant will see their income increase by 10% from today.
Special and Band 1 maintenance grant holders will see an increase of 14%.
All information is available on the SUSI.ie website.
