Overall Good. Some faculties are really great
Tips: One should have industrial experience before. The college will not spoon-feed everything. Some things you need to explore on your own. College is in a small town, so it is better if you are looking for a financially friendly college. As it saves accommodation costs. Staff is friendly.

Every penny spent on this university is value for money.
Tips: I received a scholarship from the university after getting the offer letter. I didn't get any more scholarships but you can claim the taxes for the tuition fee that you paid before joining this college. Students should be familiar with the academic structures available courses and campus facilities. This university provides excellent academic resources and the course curriculum is also very good.
Likes (Post study jobs): There is a lot of competition for jobs in Ireland especially for fresh graduates. But if you are good at your studies and have the right skills you should be able to find a job relatively easily. There are graduate roles that fresh graduates can apply for and these roles often lead to internships and permanent positions. These roles often require a degree in a specific field such as computer science engineering or business. If you have a degree in one of these fields you should be able to find a graduate role that is a good fit for your skills and interests.
Dislikes (Indian Food): In Athlone there are only two or three good Asian restaurants. The price is reasonable. A garlic naan is two euros and chicken curry and vegetable curries are available. The taste is similar to what we get in India. I mostly cook for myself.

Don't waste your money. Stay in your company. Upskill your skill set.
Tips: Students should know that there are no Jobs in Ireland right now. These agents and universities are money-hungry. Please don't listen to them. Do your research. The pay scale is pathetic compared to other countries. Invest your money wisely. Work hard where you are right now.

It is rare to find on-campus jobs so opt for off-campus part-time work.
Tips: I got a 4000 euro scholarship based on my past experience and undergraduate scores. While the courses are very good, some professors are rude and biased, so I recommend being kind to everyone. The best part is that the Irish people are very humble.
Likes (Safety): All is safe. No junkies. Garda is everywhere, and has cc tvs all along the roads, mostly. But have to be careful when driving scooters because the roads are slippery as it rains mostly in Ireland. Always wear sweaters and gloves on your hands to avoid freezing. People are good, but be careful with people under 18.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are only four or five jobs on campus, and it is rare to find on-campus jobs. Therefore, it's better to search for off-campus part-time work. There are a few part-time jobs in Athlone. It's manageable to work part-time while in school. The basic pay that everyone gets is 13.5 euros per hour.

Good college. No racial abuse. Lower tuition fees.
Tips: This is a small town. All the shops close at 6:30, depending on the season. Do not come here with an expectation of happening life. It's very boring. If you are determined to get a work life here, you really need to be focused; it's a very competitive job industry. Many have gone back after 2 years of a job seeker visa. Come to this college if you want to spend as little as possible on tuition fees, make the most out of the opportunity you are getting here and be very focused and determined to get a sponsored job. Otherwise, I promise you are wasting your time, money, and energy. Plus the weather gets crazy from time to time which adds to your depression. People rarely mention that. It's a real concern.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Getting a sponsored job is the real job here; once that is done, a residence permit is easy. Till you get a job, you have to renew your residence permit every year which would cost you 300 euros and a mandatory medical insurance that costs 250.
Dislikes (Internships): The number of companies offering internships is very low compared to the number of students trying to get internships. Depends on resume reach, contact and other factors as well. Only 1 in my batch was able to secure an internship which was converted into a full time job later.
