OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS LOOKING TO STUDY IN IRELAND
If you are interested in studying in Europe or in studying abroad, then you should consider studying in Ireland as there are a great number of opportunities for prospective Ireland students.
Ireland, which is mostly known as the Republic of Ireland, is located in the northwestern part of Europe and its capital is Dublin. Ireland is known to have a population as low as 4.8million, this makes it a peaceful and safe country, which can be said to be one out of the numerous opportunities prospective students with the intentions to study in Ireland have.
A lot of our clients come to us looking to study in the UK. Yes, the UK is a great study abroad option but Ireland is also an amazing option too.
The Republic of Ireland is a good country to study in, this is why the immigration authorities ensure that Prospective students coming into the country for their studies are well qualified. This explains their strict admission process, like providing a 6 months bank statement and writing an English Level Test, are there are lots of opportunities for prospective Ireland students in the country
Let us take a look at the privileges that Ireland has put in place for students with the intention to study in the country.
FEES ( TUITION FEES, PROOF OF FUNDS ) FOR PROSPECTIVE IRELAND STUDENT
One of the opportunities for studying in Ireland is the affordable tuition fees. In Ireland, there are tuition fees that range between €10,000 – €15,000. (Euro)
Tuition fees are expected to be paid in full before proceeding to the visa stage, therefore, the proof of funds to be provided should only contain the student’s cost of living, which is around €7,000.
€7,000 (Cost of Living) + 15,000 (Tuition fees ) = €22, 000
With around 10,000,000 – 11,000,000 naira, you can comfortably scale through the admission process and the visa process and successfully study in Ireland. It is a great opportunity as the fees needed for your studies are more affordable compared to that of the UK, Canada or even the USA.
SPONSORSHIP FOR VISA PROCESSING
Unlike the UK, which permits only parents to sponsor a student’s admission, Ireland permits all types of family members, both nuclear or extended. As long as proof of relationship is shown (such as a birth certificate), then any family member can be a sponsor for your studies. This is an opportunity for you as a prospective Ireland students that makes it possible to successfully study, as you do not have to wait until you have saved up enough funds before you can travel for your studies.
PERMANENT RESIDENCY
You are entitled to a 2-years post-study work permit after your master’s program in Ireland and there are a lot of jobs for students. After this permit ends, you are allowed to apply for a work visa as long as you have a permanent job.
In the UK an employment letter from a licensed organisation must be provided and the organisation must file a Certificate of Sponsorship request before a student can be considered for a work visa, however, this does not apply in Ireland.
To apply for a work visa in Ireland all you need to provide is your offer letter from the organisation where you work, the organisation does not need to request a certificate of sponsorship.
After being in Ireland for more than 5years, moving from a study visa to a work visa, you can go ahead to apply for permanent residency.
TRAVEL OPPORTUNITIES
