Great student life and a diverse environment.
Tips: Research your course and make sure your education and work experience prepare you to make the most out of the platform you have as a master's level student in a different country. The faculty and facility are world class. It really comes down to how you capitalise on the opportunities. Don't expect anyone to spoon-feed you.
Likes (Student Life): There's always a lot of extra curricular activities, social events and overall a very welcoming environment for international students. I personally made the most of this as a student ambassador. I attended socio-cultural events, made a video, took photos, and did volunteer work. This has been a valuable life experience, and I also won a gold medal with the student ambassador programme.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): You are pretty much left to your own for networking and connections to find a job. There's no formal job placement. There is however internship placement, which can be limited in options. There are some amazing lecturers who can help you get better leads for jobs through their contacts but there's no formal process for placement.

Good campus and friendly people. Try not to get in trouble with others.
Tips: Make sure you are related to sports in any way and always check mail. Make sure to know how to read and analyse journals and articles. Know how to use SPSS software and have a minimum computer knowledge. Try to use every opportunity you have and you will also get several free services in different areas.
Likes (Safety): There are some isolated events, other than that, all good. It is safe but don't go and make a show in front of other Irish people and don't seek unnecessary trouble. Mind our own business and live. Don't go and help people whom you don't know and make sure not to make noise about others' problems.
Dislikes (Internships): We have to find the internship ourselves and the faculty will not give us that much help. The faculty members in internship programs always prefer people with a sports background or people who play sports in Ireland.

A good place, a wonderful campus and some friendly staffs.
Tips: I have learned to expect the worst. The teachers are friendly, but not entirely genuine. I didn't receive any scholarships. I am satisfied with the university, but not with the curriculum. They don't provide a proper introduction to the course instead, we are expected to learn everything from scratch on our own, without the necessary guidance or structured support.
Likes (Public transportation): You get transportation every now and then. Every half an hour there are buses to most routes. The only problem is the rain. If there is rain, then there are chances of buses getting cancelled. But you have good buses here compared to Dublin and also the rates for students are also less in Limerick.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): If given a chance, I would love to. But in the city where I stay, the people are not that friendly and supportive to indians. Also the options of even getting a part time job itself are hard to find. People wish to hire only if they need us that urgently, or else they just collect our CVs and don't even contact back.

Highly reputed college with very qualified faculty. Gives importance to practical implementations.
Tips: I received a 20% scholarship on tuition fees based on my Bachelor's academic results. I felt the university was far better than expected, and it was satisfying to begin my course here. The faculty members are understanding and do not put unnecessary pressure on students. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Safety): Limerick felt peaceful and safe as it has a smaller population compared to some big cities like Dublin. Students can work part-time, explore Ireland and have a good experience while studying all without any extra stress. Students can socialise with different students who come from all around the world.
Dislikes (Internships): There are many internship opportunities available for undergrad students compared to postgrad students. We can apply, and it depends on the role or field for which the students are applying for internships. But you won't get enough time for internships, as it's a one-year programme for a Master's in which we have our dissertation as well.

Bachelor of Business Studies - Batch of 2026
3.9
On-campus part-time jobs are highly competitive.
Tips: I believe the Irish culture can be a bit surprising at first, especially regarding how people behave and communicate. However, it's very easy to adapt, as Irish people are generally friendly. I was fortunate to receive a scholarship for three consecutive years. The first year was awarded for scoring over 85% in my CBSE exams in the 12th grade, and for the following two years, I had to maintain my scholarship by keeping my QCA above 3 out of 4. The scholarship was worth 8,000 euros annually. The university is very welcoming, but it can feel overwhelming due to its size. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved through clubs and societies. The course emphasises self-study, which is a great way to learn and understand the lectures.
Likes (Internships): If you are pursuing a Bachelor's degree here, you are required to complete an 8-month co-op internship during your 2nd or 3rd year, which is part of the curriculum. The university will distribute your CV, and you'll be interviewed until you're successful. These internships are usually relevant to your degree, the working conditions are excellent, and most are paid.
Dislikes (Part time work): Here, on-campus part-time jobs are highly competitive; however, there are many volunteering opportunities that provide vouchers for various stores. Off-campus jobs are relatively easier to find, but the work hours can be challenging for full-time students.

It is really a beautiful college with greenery, rivers, and many sports grounds and stadiums.
Tips: I feel it's really worth coming here as an international student; it's been a nice experience meeting students from different countries. I received a 2000 euros scholarship as a discount on my total tuition fee when I received the offer letter. The welcoming nature and high quality of life are also great.
Likes (Post study jobs): Many companies here offer sponsorship visas, and based on my conversations with working professionals, there are thriving job opportunities, especially in sectors such as pharmaceuticals and finance. The presence of numerous multinational companies and startups creates a dynamic employment landscape.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I believe the country offers a clear and structured pathway for skilled professionals to transition from temporary to permanent residence. The Ireland critical skills visas, particularly the Stamp 4 visa options, are attractive to international graduates with in-demand qualifications.
