Is it the same if it was in Britain?


Yes. you can get a loan to pay for the small fees/ contribution and a loan for maintenance.

I had to look it up. Its some weird relation between the two parts of Ireland and then theres another one with Scotland. I think its because they control their own budgets.

I always think ive gotten something wrong when certain posters tag me...

The OP should ofc check with the student finance people in N Ireland, but that was my reading late last night in my not very interested mode.

Scotland imo has by far the worst site and most unhelpful advice.

It will be a Good Friday Agreement thing to ensure fair treatment across the Island. It's also why you can watch RTE via Sky or Virginmedia in Northern Ireland but not in the rest of the UK.
