Have heard very little about this initiative except that there is change to have free funds for part time courses in some instances. Anyone have detail? My son is on Disability Allowance so wondering if he may be covered. Its looking less likely that he will manage full time course. Thank you
Part time online degree and SUSI fees-- any detail on this?

Its part of the Budget measures. Looking at what RedOnion posted, the detail isnt available yet. It would relate to fees only, and there would be no msintenance grant.

Thank you for posting these, hopefully more detail in coming weeks.
I need to look into options for my son. He is in fifth year, but is now going onto a reduced timetable. We may be above the grant limit anyway but im not sure how that would be assessed, so just trying to understand the options.
