The support is fully funded by the Regional Budget and takes the form of an individual payment of €232.33 per student, corresponding to one third of the maximum tuition fee.

So far 107,000 student grant applications have been submitted, below last year. The rejection rate is around 17%, with about 18,000 applications denied.

Fewer than 40% receive a grant. The vast majority have no form of individualised support during their course — for most this is because they do not need it, but one in three are unaware that such support exists.
