Education Cost?
Tuition fees for EU/EEA students In Ireland, undergraduate (Bachelor’s) degrees are free for citizens from Ireland, EU/EEA countries, and Switzerland. The costs are covered by the Higher Education Authority (HEA). Keep in mind that not all undergraduate courses offered by public universities are free. Always check the official study programme page to see what tuition fees apply to students from your country. To benefit from the “free fees initiative”, you have to apply for the government funding programme and prove that you are eligible.
You are not eligible if:
• You already have an undergraduate degree.
• You already have a postgraduate degree.
• You are repeating a year of study Nationality, immigration status, residence and course requirements are other criteria that can qualify you for a tuition-free university degree.
For postgraduate (Master’s and PhD) studies, EU/EEA students should expect to pay tuition fees that range between 3,000 - 30,000 EUR/academic year. Business and Medicine courses are usually the most expensive. Tuition fees for non-EU/EEA students
• Undergraduate courses: 9,850 - 55,000 EUR/year.
• Postgraduate Master's and PhD courses: 9,950 - 35,000 EUR/year All international students (both EU/EEA and non-EU/EEA citizens) have to pay a student contribution fee of maximum 3,000 EUR/year for student services, like examination entries and support for clubs and societies. The fee varies from one university to another, and it can change every year.
