Ireland Intakes for Students From India
Irish universities take students in two main intakes during the year. Picking the right intake gives you more course choices and better scholarship chances.
- September Intake (Autumn): This is the main intake. It has the most courses, the most seats, and the most scholarships. Most students from India join in this intake.
- January Intake (Spring): This is a smaller intake with fewer courses. It is a good backup if you miss the September dates, and it is mostly for selected master’s courses.
- A few colleges, like Dublin Business School, also have a small intake in April.
Tip: Start your application about 8 to 12 months before your intake so you have enough time for offers, financial planning, fund management, meeting the requirements if any, and the visa.
