Ireland is good now but wouldn’t be in the future. It’s a country smaller than Madhya Pradesh.
Tips: It’s not Dublin, so better to go to Dublin universities if coming to Ireland and also try going to the USA or other countries, as Ireland will be crowded soon. There was a cultural shift and many people hate the climate and transport. People are extremely nice and friendly. I missed out on scholarships but people usually get them when they apply in advance. I am somewhat satisfied but my goal has not been achieved yet.
Likes (Safety): It’s pretty safe but some people have had some bad incidents, depending on the place and area you live in. I think campus safety is the only security provided to the students and the local police are good but they don’t have all the resources to protect the students outside the campus premises. I had mostly good experiences but there were some threats given to me during my stay in Ireland so far.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Ireland is a small country and it’s being flooded, counsellors and agents are promoting Ireland like an alternative to the USA but it isn’t and it isn’t a Schengen country as well. I’ll suggest going to the Netherlands for a safer alternative or Germany. I’d love to permanently immigrate to this country but it’s looking hard to do so at this point.

A lot of self-learning, networking and personal growth.
Tips: The personal growth that the students would experience after joining the college is huge. Learning to do things on your own and handling your own finance and everything basically makes you grow a lot. This is more personal than academic. Academically as well, it is more of a self-learning than the teachers teaching you. There is a lot to learn by ourselves, do personal projects which are all going to determined whether you're going to find a job or not. I would advice that every student do thorough research before joining any university. Go through the syllabus and make sure that the contents are what you can learn with some effort. Also prepare in advance and learn the basics of what you are going to be learning at the university. Connect with your alumni and ask them for advice on how to navigate the course how to do projects and what they have done to achieve success.
Likes (Public transportation): There is free transportation within the campus for students. Other than that, there is bus service almost everywhere within the city and students have a special concession for their transport. There is a NFT card that you can top-up and tap in the bus which allows you to travel.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There is currently a huge competition, especially in the field of IT. If a student has prior experience, it would be easier to find a job that offers a visa. For graduates, the expected average salary would be around 35k EUR annually and it goes higher depending on the experience.

Beautiful country, kind people, great opportunities and an amazing education system.
Tips: The transition has been smooth and welcoming, with a culture that feels familiar, kind people, and a lot of festivals, though the rain and cold took a little time to adjust to. The teaching is excellent and the environment is supportive. Scholarships are available across many programs, so it is worth applying early since they can reduce fees and sometimes include a small monthly stipend. Do sort out accommodation before you arrive because housing is tight. Clothes are affordable thanks to the steady weather, but electronics are expensive, so bring essentials from India. Part time work helps with living cost, so start looking as soon as you land, begin your PPSN application and complete your online residence permit. Campus roles like teaching assistant, library, or student ambassador are great option, and retail or Delhi jobs also pay decently while you study.
Likes (Post study jobs): I landed a research Data Scientist role after my Masters and many friends did well too, so its very possible to bag a nice paying job with Visa sponsorship. The number of companies sponsor visas changes, but there are plenty, especially among those with solid graduate intake. Typical roles range from graduate programs to mid and senior positions, and salaries are competitive and grow with the strength of your portfolio, communication and technical depth. If you put in consistent, focused effort, you can absolutely grab a great opportunity. Jobs in different sectors have different pay scales, but graduate roles usually play around 40k per annum, mid level play around 50-70k depending on the sector and experience, and senior level can go above 70k on average.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Adjusting to food anywhere else is always a challenge, and Galway has relatively less choices for authentic North Indian cuisine. Restaurants like Kumar's, Kashmir and Eastern Tandoori provide some variety, but they can't match the flavour like that of home. I usually prefer cooking at home, buying groceries and masalas from asian stores, though they are quite expensive.

Pretty nice country for short term international exposure. Don’t think about settlement.
Tips: Be prepared to manage everything independently. The weather can be harsh, so bring suitable clothing. Obtain an Indian driving license and purchase a car as soon as possible for convenience. None of the people I met received any scholarships. The university was great, the course was decent, and the country is nice, especially if you live in Galway city.
Likes (Safety): The 5-star rating is based on the previous year, and I doubt it will remain the same in the coming years. Many immigrants are being attacked these days. While most cases still occur in Dublin, Galway is a safer option. However, the majority of jobs are in Dublin, and the conditions there for brown immigrants are far from ideal. People in Galway city are generally nice, friendly, and warm. However, incidents of teenagers attacking or harassing people after sunset are increasing and cause concern.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Most companies won't hire freshers or those with less than 3-5 years of experience at a major MNC from their home country. Job roles are also often one or two levels lower; for example, a manager from India might only get an assistant manager or senior associate position. Regarding visas, over 90% of companies reject candidates solely based on visa status, and even those who hire may not assist in renewal upon expiry, opting for a more convenient candidate instead.

Uni of Galway is a research led university with a strong multicultural base.
Tips: I found the Irish to be warm and welcoming, making my transition very smooth. I have a scholarship that provides a monthly stipend exceeding my expenses, allowing me to save a good amount. I am pursuing a 4-year structured Ph.D. with a dedicated budget of 250k euros over the course of the four years. This includes tuition waivers and a stipend. I am very satisfied with the University of Galway and its faculty, and I love Ireland.
Likes (Safety): Galway is a very safe city. You can be out and about late at night and feel safe, regardless of your gender. I've had all good experiences. There's a dedicated "call a friend" scheme where you can call a friend to walk you home if you feel unsafe. Otherwise, I've walked home at 1 am from campus several times and, thankfully, never felt unsafe. To ensure student safety, we have a dedicated medical clinic on campus, free for students. So, in case of accidents or emergencies, you can walk in without an appointment and be seen by a GP, who can then make a referral to A/E if needed.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of securing a Critical Skills Work Permit have been steadily declining, based on my observations and what I've heard. This isn't specific to any background but reflects the cooling Irish job market. I know people from two years ago who haven't secured sponsorships through this visa route. However, those with backgrounds in niche domains, such as AI engineers or logistics professionals, may have a better chance and could potentially gain permanent settlement after a Stamp 4 visa, roughly within four years. I would like to make Ireland my home permanently, given the opportunity.
