UCD, where brilliance meet opportunities
Tips: The university has a very nice academic environment along with fine opportunities, but the fees are a bit high comparatively. So it's better to look through the fellowship/scholarship options and secure one if possible. Also, Dublin weather is not so nice most of the year; it's mostly cloudy and rainy without sun, so be prepared.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): It's easy to get permanent residence after 5 years. The tax regulations are very beneficial. The housing costs are a bit high but manageable. Also the people are nice. The city is multicultural, with a variety of Indian stores where you can get your everyday essentials and cook food to suit your home tastes.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The bus service is not that reliable. It's better to have a bicycle, which you can get at a discount price from the university. The tram/Luas system is very reliable, and also there is a train line along the coast with nice views. The train is very regular.

ONLY TRUTH AND NO BS!
Tips: There is absolutely a cultural shift, but you need to always keep in mind that you cannot afford to be lazy but always be working. For both, a career and money for sustenance are important. - I did not get a scholarship; I applied, though! - I am satisfied enough, as in 4 out of 5, because I am loving the country.
Likes (Public transportation): Good buses and LUAS. Everything is well connected and easily accessible. Buses, the Dart, and the LUAS are the most used ones to travel within the city. Even if there are no direct buses, you get the connecting ones almost on time. I had a few friends who used to take connecting routes. Most visited places are connected nicely, and major routes are active frequently.
Dislikes (Internships): I did not see any big companies coming in for internships. No doubt the faculty did help us in making our CVs and organizing events, but more exposure and hiring could have been pushed to create an on-campus opportunity to grab an internship. - Yes, there are, but you need to find them by being active on job postings on their website or LinkedIn.

Amazing wonderful Journey
Tips: Before coming to UCD, take time to review your module outlines and syllabus closely. Focus on how the academic theory connects to practical business applications in Ireland, because bridging that gap early makes a huge difference in discussions and assignments. I didn't receive any scholarship funding, so studying at UCD was a significant out-of-pocket investment. That said, UCD’s reputation in the Irish job market is top-tier and opens doors with recruiters. The workload can get intense fast, so my biggest practical tip is to hit assignment deadlines early rather than scrambling at the last minute—continuous assessment marks build up quickly here.

Research thoroughly before joining.
Tips: Know wisely, be prepared, and do not think about figuring out later; always have a backup. I did not avail myself of the scholarships but keep an eye out for those. Transition was smooth, depending on the people you find. Be curious, be gentle, be kind and always treat others with respect.
Likes (Part time work): The average payout is the minimum wage recently; it is pretty straightforward to be honest. UCD has many on-campus opportunities but the competition is tough, so be prepared. Even off-campus is not bad at all. The way to manage your work is to have a talk with your managers so that they know your availability, which will make it a little easier. Honesty is work, so do not take things too seriously but be responsible always. Also you can find work on the next day or maybe in 5 months so that is the luck factor.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Depends on the jobs you can find to sponsor. I always stress two things: your luck and experience so if you find one it is great. Always help everyone, no matter who or what race they are from. Be active, respect the community, and be proud of your hard work.

Higher fees and numerous modules in CSNL.
Tips: If you have skills, you can join any college and get a good job. This is a safe option and the only one as far as I know, that gives internship modules in the 3rd sem. TCD is more academically oriented. UCD is one of the most expensive options, but the CSNL has a lot of modules.
Likes (Student Life): It offers a lively, supportive and inclusive environment. The library is good, they have cafes, lots of buildings, a huge campus. They arrange cultural fests like Diwali and Halloween. Excellent campus, lots of options to enrol in extracurricular activities like gym, swimming, sports, etc.
Dislikes (Indian Food): 1 veg option may be available in every restaurant, and vegan restaurants are not good. Taste is below average, and the high cost of living. I strongly prefer cooking my own vegetarian meals, but grocery shopping prices have been gradually increasing. Some restaurants offer cheaper takeaway and cash discounts.
