Council third level bursaries

Two bursaries to third level study for potential students with a severe disadvantage or disability are being offered by Kildare County Council.

One is the William G Carroll Bursary, mainly for third level courses in the field of community development, but not exclusively so.

The Kildare Education Bursary for People with Disabilities is for any third level course.

Both bursaries may be applied for by people living in County Kildare, for undergraduate degrees at a recognised third level institution in Ireland.

They are not normally available for PLC or postgraduate courses, but such applications will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
