Study abroad in Ireland?

We Answered:

If you're going to study abroad, I'd choose England over Ireland. The weather is better in England (albeit only slightly), there is so much more going on for young people, and there's much more to see: London, Stonehenge, Avebury, Brighton, Manchester, to name a few cool places.

If you choose Ireland, try for Dublin, which is the livliest city. Ireland can be fun for an extended period of time if you make it so, but otherwise I'd say study in England and take a few weekend trips to Ireland.

Want to Study abroad in Ireland- Info needed!?

We Answered:

Trinity College, in Dublin, is the most famous Irish university. It's well known in the US, and is considered quite prestigious. I'd suggest you put them on your list.

They're in a great part of Dublin as well, and it's an amazing campus. I, personally, think you may want to target them.

Another strong Irish university is University College, Dublin. They are well respected, but not as prestigious as Trinity.

If you would be interested in going up north, Queens, Belfast is well respected, along the same level as UCD. It's the best university in Northern Ireland.

But Trinity is very posh.

Ireland Study Abroad Question..?

We Answered:

Dublin (with UCD and Trinity) is a great city, but since youre "from" Cork, id recommend UCC (University College Cork)
UCC has a great reputation, it a little quieter than the colleges in Dublin, but the facilities (and nightlife!) are great there
Cork is less expensive than Dublin too


To answer your second question, depending on your choice of course, you could study Irish

However, Irish at university level is really really hard (even for us and we begin studying it at 4/5 years old!). At this level its based on literature and "old irish".
You cant take "beginners" irish in university, you need a very good of the language before you even start.
To be honest I think youd find it pretty much impossible to study Irish from scratch, and i very much doubt theyd even let you....
but dont worry about it because unless you go to a designated "gaeltacht" area, you wont need anything but english

Good Luck and message me if you want to know anything else
