Ireland is home to 9 prestigious universities and 15 Institutes of Technology. Thousands of international students from over 161 countries make it to Ireland every year to complete their higher education there.


In Ireland, undergraduate courses are free if you hail from Ireland or the EU. Students from any other country do not enjoy this privilege. Ireland is a great country to study in and the living costs in the country matches the average values of most European Union nations.


For students from India wanting to study in Ireland, it is important to be informed of the tuition and living costs before making other arrangements to study there. Knowledge of the cost of study in Ireland for Indian students can help them plan their financial budget in a better manner and enjoy their period of stay in the country.


Tuition Fees

Non-EU students have to pay tuition fees when they decide to do their tertiary education in Ireland. Undergraduate courses can cost up to €25000 per annum on average. For postgraduate courses and doctorate degrees, it is likely to be slightly higher.

Undergraduate Degree €10000 - €25000 Per Year
Postgraduate Degree €9000 - €35000 Per Year
Doctoral Degree €9000 - €30000 Per Year

The fees to be paid varies based on the course that is chosen by the student, the city of stay, and the university where he/she gains admission. There are many affordable universities in Ireland that a student can choose to go to. Professional subjects (medicine, engineering, etc.) at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels cost higher than regular courses do.

    Health Support & Insurance

    Non-EU students in Ireland are not eligible for any medical insurance cover off the campus and therefore should possess their own private medical insurance. The average cost to consider is between €500 - €800 per annum.

    Taxes Involved

    International students doing a course of a minimum of one-year duration do not require a work permit to work in Ireland. Some of them can work for up to 40 hours a week. They should, however, obtain a Personal Public Services Number for this purpose. Minimum wages in Ireland sum up to € 9.80 per hour. For a student, the first € 13300 earned is free of tax. If the students earn an amount above this they have to pay a varying amount as tax depending on the income. Student counsellors at Abe Services will help a student to land the cheapest accommodation and guide them to spend only a minimum during their course of stay. This helps them to make the best of their period of study in Ireland.
