Student Nurse Bursaries

The annual nursing bursary scheme supports TUH nursing students by way of a means tested bursary, with eligibility criteria generally based on those of the SUSI Scheme. The Foundation believe that no student should be prevented from studying nursing in Tallaght University Hospital due to financial constraints. The bursaries provided each year support between 40 and 50 nursing students with costs of travel and accommodation – essentially contributing to the living costs of those who need it, to help alleviate some of the financial pressure on those studying and attending placements. This includes a separate strand for mature nursing applicants.
