Wednesday, August 11th, 2010Good Luck to Leaving Cert Students from all at Brookfield Hall
Tuesday, August 11th, 2009The Brookfield Hall team have been on the road over the last week touring the west and south-west of Ireland. Stops are being made in many towns to visit the local schools and distribute a basket containing our information flyers, cards and a few of our colourful Brookfield Hall pens thrown in for good measure.
The reason for this is that we here in Brookfield have reserved places for 1st Year students until Monday the 17th of August so that those who are not sure until then will be able to avail of our luxury UL accommodation.
We wish good luck to all receiving their results tomorrow, and for those heading to UL, remember Brookfield Hall Student Village, luxury accommodation for University of Limerick students.

Third Level Student Maintenance Grant Changes 2009
Thursday, August 6th, 2009Parents or guardians with fewer than four dependent children can earn up to €51,380 without having to pay the student services charge, which this year will be up to €1,500 depending on the third-level institution.
This top income threshold of €51,380 has been increased from €49,690 last year.
Minister O’Keeffe said that “in our changed economic circumstances, these increases in the income limits mean that students from families on low to middle incomes will continue to get financial help from the Government in covering the costs of third-level education”.
The annual income threshold for students getting the higher special rate of maintenance grant is being increased from €20,147 to €22,308 in line with the relevant social welfare comparators.
From the start of the 2010/11 academic year, further changes will be introduced.
Some social welfare allowances, including the Back to Education Allowance, which had been excluded in the means-testing process, will be included as reckonable income in assessing eligibility for student grants.
The income tax adjustment for farm stock relief will be disregarded in calculating reckonable income for means-testing purposes.
The residency requirement in the State for grant eligibility will be increased from one year to three out of the past five years for the student.
The duration of the break in studies required for re-entry as an independently assessed mature student will be increased from one year to three years.
