If your scholarship is stopped or discontinued while you are studying in Ireland, it can have several important implications for your studies and stay in the country. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Financial Impact

- Tuition Fees: If your scholarship was covering your tuition fees (fully or partially), you will be responsible for paying the remaining or full amount yourself.
- Living Expenses: If your scholarship included a stipend for living expenses, you will need to arrange alternate funding (family support, part-time work, savings, or a loan) to support yourself.

2. Visa Implications

- Student Visa Requirements: Irish immigration authorities require international students to show proof of sufficient funds for tuition and living expenses for the duration of their stay.
- Change in Financial Status: If your scholarship is stopped, you may be required to provide updated financial proof to Immigration (INIS/ISD) to retain your visa. Failure to do so could put your student visa at risk.
- Reporting Obligation: Some scholarship bodies inform the university or immigration authorities if a scholarship is discontinued. You may be asked to regularise your status.

3. Academic Progress

- University Notification: Inform your university immediately if your financial circumstances change. They may be able to guide you towards emergency funds, payment plans, or alternative scholarships.
- Possible Deferral or Withdrawal: In some cases, if you cannot arrange alternate funding, you might need to defer your studies or withdraw from the program.

4. Part-Time Work

- As an international student in Ireland, you’re generally allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during term time and up to 40 hours per week during holidays. However, this income may not be sufficient to cover all expenses.

5. Next Steps

- Contact Pollster Education: We can advise on alternate scholarships, financial planning, or transfers if needed.
- Explore Emergency Aid: Some universities offer hardship funds for students in unexpected financial distress.
- Seek Loan Assistance: You may be eligible for an education loan in India or Ireland to bridge the gap.
