January entry at universities in Ireland is ideal for international students who need more time to complete pre-university study, apply for funding or arrange their visa.
January entry offers flexibility and advantages that may suit certain students depending on their circumstances. Traditionally, university admissions in Ireland have primarily been focused on the September entry, aligning with the academic year in the country.
Students should begin applying between June and September. However, the application timeline for the January intake in Irish universities may vary slightly depending on the specific institution and programme of study.
Make sure to apply with the correct information before the stated deadline, and as soon as you receive the letter of acceptance, you must apply for a visa in Ireland to avoid any delays.
