Renewing your Grant Application

You must renew your application for each year of your course. For example, if you held a grant from SUSI in 2022/23 and are continuing your studies on the same course in the 2023/24 academic year, SUSI will contact you by email to advise you to renew your grant application.

However if you have:

• completed a previous course and are applying for a one year add on course for the current academic year 2023/2024 you will need to  make a new application. Example, you have completed a 3 year Level 8 course and are now applying for a 1 of a level 8 course.
• decided to change your course, your college or are starting a new course you will need to make a new application.
• previously deferred a year of your course and are now returning to continue your studies on the same course, you will need to make a new application.
