- For other non-standard applications the College operates a Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (RPEL) scheme, meaning applicants who do not meet the normal academic entry requirements may be considered based on relevant work or other experience.
- Typically, holders of more technical and numerate degrees or candidates that are able to demonstrate technical or mathematical problem-solving skills are likely to gain a higher ranking in the selection for the course.

Part time job is really hard to find.
Tips: Do some research on your own, do not trust any consultancy blindly because they'll surely manipulate by showing old data, so know about the current statistics, and do a lot of networking, which is going to help you a lot after reaching Ireland. The international ratio is also not that good, as more and more indians are moving to Ireland, so if you're applying to this university for the international student ratio, then I'd suggest not to.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is so vibrant and awesome, filled with lots of opportunities to connect with many working professionals and also a lot of activities to keep us engaged. I learned a lot through these activities. Student life is also so much fun with a lot of international students and we get to know about different cultures.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time job is really hard to find. I thought of repaying my loan and taking care of my monthly expenses using my part time as my consultancies suggested, but in reality, it's totally different. So don't trust any consultancies, they are just manipulating you with old data, do some research on current statistics.

Fun and vibrant campus life.
Tips: There's a cultural shift, so students need to be adaptable. The college offers scholarships. I am very satisfied with the knowledge and career growth opportunities. Experience is beneficial; freshers may struggle to find good jobs. Students should be open to new challenges and build connections.

A practical and supportive learning experience in a global city.
Tips: Students should know that NCI has a strong academic structure with industry-aligned courses, but self-discipline is crucial. Accommodation near the campus can be expensive, so plan early. Also, engage actively in class and network for better opportunities.
The transition was smooth academically, but there was definitely a cultural shift—people are more informal, independent, and value punctuality. Group work expectations and communication styles were different, but I adapted over time by being open and observant.
I availed of an academic merit scholarship offered by NCI. I received it based on my undergraduate grades and Statement of Purpose during admission. The allowance was a tuition fee reduction of €2,000, which helped significantly with expenses.
I am quite satisfied with my experience at NCI—the course is practical and relevant to industry needs, and the faculty is supportive. Ireland is safe, multicultural, and offers great post-study work opportunities, making it a worthwhile academic destination.
Dislikes (Safety): I rated 3 on Safety because while the campus itself is secure with access-controlled entries and CCTV surveillance, the surrounding areas of the city can sometimes feel unsafe during late hours, particularly in less crowded zones, which affects the overall sense of security.
Apart from campus security, NCI offers student support services including mental health assistance, emergency contact protocols, and safety briefings. The college also collaborates with local authorities to ensure a safe commute and provides safe travel advice.
A good experience I had was attending the vibrant cultural festivals around Dublin—people are welcoming and it’s easy to socialize. However, I once faced a minor theft incident in the city center, which made me more cautious about carrying valuables.

Securing internships here is challenging due to limited opportunities.
Tips: NCI offers scholarships based on your background. It was a great experience living with people from different nationalities and learning about their cultures, languages and way of life. Overall, the experience was good, but not as amazing as I expected.
Likes (Safety): The campus and city are generally safe, especially since the college is situated in a prime, central location. CCTV cameras are installed throughout, and the friendly security guards are always available to assist.
Dislikes (Internships): We have a careers team that provides guidance with CVs, LinkedIn profiles, and mock interviews. We will be assigned career coaches to assist and provide personalised support, but securing internships here is challenging, regardless of background and experience. Obtaining a graduate role is also very difficult.

The job market is very competitive; very few sponsored jobs are available.
Tips: I got the scholarship based on my grades. The university is fair, I would say. There are many things to learn, but that needs to be done by ourselves. The college won't help much, but the exam papers are tough, and strict rules are followed. There are many Indian students in the college, so the environment is good, however the part-time job situation is not so good now.
Likes (Public transportation): NCI is in the city centre and is well connected by Luas, Train and Bus. Public transport is affordable. A ride costs only 1 euro for 90 minutes. So college travel costs 2 euros, but it's not always reliable because buses get cancelled frequently. I suggest the Luas or train options instead of the bus.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Market is very competitive now. There are many students coming every year, but there are only a few jobs available, and they require experience. Supply of data roles is less than demand. Very few sponsored jobs are available. Even with experience, students are struggling.
