However, getting an education in Ireland will be difficult without proper planning and this may result in getting rejected by an Irish university and losing all of these benefits. To study in Ireland, you should be aware of the admission intakes available as this will determine the requirements and the timeline needed to avoid rush hour.
Every year, we come across students who begin their admission process when it is getting close to the university application deadline, this is known as the rush hour. These students put their studies at a big risk as the outcome may not always be favourable. Avoid rush hour and begin your application process early, according to the university intake of your choice.
If you want to study in Ireland, the first thing you should look into are the university intakes. Irish universities offer two major intakes which are
- September (Autumn/Fall) Intake
- January/February (Spring) Intake
SEPTEMBER (AUTUMN/FALL) INTAKE
The autumn/Fall intake begins in September and runs till December, it is known to be the major intake at universities in Ireland. The application deadline for the fall intake is June/July. This means that by June or July, universities in Ireland stop accepting applications for students with the intent to study for the September (Fall) intake.
Students with the intention to go for the fall intake, are therefore advised to begin their application process in January/February before the June/July deadline, so as to avoid rush hour and ensure they are being granted an offer with a smooth process.
Within the periods of February, March, April and May, students are expected to complete the Admission/ Visa process.
JANUARY/FEBRUARY (SPRING) INTAKE
The Spring intake begins late January and runs till May. University intakes during this period are less, compared to the September (Fall) Intake. This intake is not carried out by every Irish University and it does not apply to all courses. Contact our agency to get full information on the courses and universities that carry out the January/February (Spring) intake.
The application deadline for the spring intake is September/October. This means that by September or October universities in Ireland stop accepting applications for students with the intent to study for the January/February (Spring) intake.
Therefore students with the intention to study during the spring intake, are advised to begin their application process in May/June before the September/October deadline, to avoid rush hour and ensure they are being granted an offer.
Within the periods of May, June, July and August, students are expected to complete the Admission/ Visa process and await their departure dates for their studies in Ireland.
APRIL INTAKE
This intake is not part of the major intakes for Irish Universities as very few universities in Ireland perform it and it is open to very few courses, like business courses. Speak with our counsellors to get full information on the courses and universities that carry out this intake.
The application deadline for the spring intake is January/February, therefore students looking to study during the April intake are advised to begin their admission process before the deadline.
The application/visa process that you as a prospective study abroad student must complete before successfully going for their studies abroad are:
- Select the course and the Universities to study: As a prospective study abroad student, your opinion should be based on your interests. The courses you choose should be aligned with your study, career goals and affordability.
- Register for an English level test, prepare and take the exam: Since universities in Ireland are English-speaking, it is mandatory that an English test is presented, if not during the application process, then during the Visa processing. An English level test result is among the documents to be present during an Irish student visa application.
- Begin your application process at Negxy Concept Limited: Start your admission process at our agency by providing the necessary documents: International Passport, Degree Certificate, Transcript, Reference letter, Personal Statement, CV and await a response from the school within 48hours-12weeks.
- Accept your admission offer: After you have been granted an offer, confirm your acceptance and await your interview (If required).
