Each participating university has a limited number of bursaries each year. The number of bursaries for 2024 has yet to be announced, please see below how many bursaries TU Dublin offered in 2023.
- Tier 1: €5,000 per annum. In 2023, Tier 1 Bursaries were awarded to a total of 51 TU Dublin new entrant undergraduate students for the duration of their studies.
- Tier 2: €2,000 per annum. In 2023, Tier 2 Bursaries were awarded to a total of 25 TU Dublin new entrant undergraduate students for the duration of their studies. Tier 2 Bursaries were awarded to applicants who met the criteria for the 1916 Bursary but who did not ultimately qualify for a Tier 1 bursary.
Tier 1 and 2 bursaries will also be paid as students progress into postgraduate study. This means that students already in receipt of a 1916 Bursary and who are completing their undergraduate studies will be entitled to continue to receive their bursary for postgraduate study.
For further information on how the 1916 Bursary is managed, please see the HEA PATH 2 Guidelines. Please note these are 2023/24 guidelines, we are awaiting the updated guidelines from the HEA.
