  • Account Holder Title – please enter same

The University cannot accept responsibility for incorrect information being submitted by an EFT applicant – please ensure that you submit the correct details in all sections as outlined above.

Refunds are processed twice monthly (requests received and approved by close of business on the 1st and 3rd Friday of the month are processed thereafter within a 10 day timeframe).  If you submit incorrect bank details the University must wait for the bounce back from the Bank before any other EFT can be re-processed on your student fee account.

When the University has successfully processed your EFT and the file has been uploaded to the Bank - an email will be sent to your Maynooth University email account to confirm same.

If you have any queries / comments please forward them by email to feerefunds@mu.ie OR book an online appointment OR call in person to the Fees & Grants Office where any member of team will gladly assist you with inputting same.

Many Thanks.
