FEES & GRANTS

Tuition fees are paid by the Irish government for Irish/EU nationals who have been ordinarily resident in an EU member state for at least three of the five years preceding entry to third level, subject to the following conditions.

FEES FOR IRISH/EU NATIONALS

1. Tuition fees are paid by the State only for those attending a full-time undergraduate course.

2. The degree must be a minimum of two years in duration (other than in exceptional circumstances).

3. Tuition fees will not be paid by the State for students who are undertaking a second undergraduate course. However, fees will be paid for students who already hold a Level 6 or Level 7 qualification and are progressing to a Level 8 degree course, in the following circumstances:

a) If your existing qualification gives you the credits needed to meet the entry requirements, and

b) If an appropriate exemption from the normal duration of the degree course is available on the basis of the Level 6 or Level 7 qualification.

4. Tuition fees will be paid for students who previously attended but did not complete approved courses and are now returning, following a break of at least five years, to pursue an approved course at the same level.

5. Apart from the students mentioned in point 4, tuition fees will not be paid for students who are repeating a year having changed (but not completed) their undergraduate course. This condition may be waived in exceptional circumstances.

Outside of tuition fees, all students must make a payment for registration, examinations and student services. The above is the fee policy which applied to entry in 2021. This is subject to change depending on Government regulations. Check the website for updates
