University of Galway Reviews & Ratings ,,Ireland

Tips: Students should know that it is a misconception that the quality of education is better in countries abroad. The curriculum here doesn't add a lot of pressure with a bombardment of exams as most of the grades are covered by assignments. It's better if students get a scholarship and all the details are available on the university website. The public transportation is great, always on time and very accessible and affordable.

Tips: The university is known to be in the top 1% but students should keep in mind, that they are on their own. Course content is really good but still some of the aspects they have to do by themselves. It has a good alumni network but it depends on how students are utilising it. I also strongly recommend joining different clubs to get involved in the activities and culture of the country.

Tips: I have pursued my bachelor's from the same university. So it was easy for me to transition into the culture. Although I was an alumni, I asked multiple times for alumni scholarships but they rejected me. It doesn't make sense, I have spent crores of rupees with them and they can even offer some amount of scholarship. I am not at all satisfied with the university, course or country.

Tips: Students should expect a cultural shift but not so much as a 'cultural shock'. Carry essential but not too much, especially clothing. The course and the mentors are very good and supportive. Should not expect to get part time immediately, it is competitive and may require references.

Tips: Ireland is a small, sweet and nice country. The awesome part of NUIG are the events that they keep conducting each week.
