Admission Timeline to Study in Ireland

EU candidates can apply to all full-time undergraduate courses via the Central Application Office (CAO). After signing up and creating your profile on the official CAO portal, you can select up to 10 Honors Bachelor’s degree (level 8) courses on the CAO form in the order of your preference. Then, if you meet the eligibility criteria of the courses, you'll receive an offer according to your preference.

On the other hand, non-EU candidates must apply directly from the institute’s official website. However, some institutes require all students to apply via the CAO. So, it’s best to check the requirements beforehand.

Most institutes in Ireland charge a non-refundable application fee of approx. €45-60 (approx. INR 3700-4900). This fee does not include the charges for English language proficiency tests (IELTS/TOEFL/DET/PTE Academic, etc.) you must pay before applying to any institute.
