A journey of learning, adaptation and opportunities.
Tips: Be prepared for self-learning, as finding a job and adjusting to living independently will take a lot of work. NCI offers international students academic merit-based scholarships, which is a big help. NCI offers academic merit based on scholarships for international students. On campus, part-time roles are mostly as lab assistants, library assistants, or student ambassadors. Most students can secure one of these positions during their second semester or later. Many other students find part-time jobs off-campus in retail, hospitality, warehousing, and delivery services. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Internships): While internships are available at the National College of Ireland, they are very limited and only targeted towards Bachelors students, not Masters students. Most internship opportunities are for candidates with less than one year of experience, making it difficult for students with prior work experience to secure one. Additionally, there is minimal structured guidance from the college when it comes to finding or applying for internships. Students are mostly required to search for opportunities on their own through job portals and networking.

Amazing infrastructure, knowledgeable and industry-experienced professors.
Tips: The major objective here is to teach based on practical knowledge rather than just theory. The college encourages students to think practically to help prepare them for the real world. If someone has poor time management, things could feel a bit rushed and stressful. If you can manage your time efficiently, this won't be a problem. You will probably enjoy the pace of the classes. There are also scholarships available based on past academic performance, so it pays to have good grades. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Not many Indian restaurants are available, and the handful that are in town may not be what you expect. The options are reasonable based on your budget and experience. If it's not possible to get delivery from a restaurant, I often cook myself. This is convenient, and a big way to save money while studying. I do, however, eat out from time to time to save myself the effort of cooking. Many ready-to-eat meals are also available in stores, which are easy and fast to cook.

If saving money is key and you don't care about social life or need help finding work, go for it.
Tips: Students should be aware that the environment will consist entirely of Indian students, with strict deadlines and assignments. There won't be any opportunities to make foreign friends or participate in student fests. The academic atmosphere is highly focused and rigorous.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty members are actually good, they have a lot of experience and they communicate that well. I also appreciate the way of teaching a particular subject or topic. It is good to learn, but the lectures are almost every day of the week, which makes it tough.
Dislikes (Internships): In Ireland, there are no internship options provided, and the college offers no help in securing any internship or job. Students have to independently find opportunities, without any support from the institution. This lack of guidance usually makes it tough for the students to gain experience.

NCI is a good college for education and it's affordable as well.
Tips: NCI gives scholarships to all students, but the amount varies depending on their academic profile. The university takes good care of its students in all areas, not just academics. It has a variety of extracurricular activities and tries its best to benefit the students. Dublin has good accommodation options for both individuals and students, and they are affordable. Some areas may be more expensive, but that depends on the location you choose to live. Overall, I am satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Student Life): NCI gives priority to all the festivals of every country as all the international students come and study here. Some of the examples may be Christmas and Diwali disco and party events including Halloween and New Year parties. There are many clubs in the college right from clubs from all disciplines and sports clubs and anyone who wants or feels that a club should be there, can go to the students union and request them for the same and I'm sure that they will form that club because they are also very cooperative and encourage students who have leadership qualities.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Dublin is well-connected to all areas and has good public transportation. There are 24-hour bus services like G1, G2, and N4, and many more. The trams also operate on an hourly basis after midnight, so transportation is not a problem.

Think and research before coming to any abroad country for study.
Tips: Students should know that the transition from India to Ireland was a bit difficult in terms of weather conditions and also to cover the expenses. The first challenge here is to get good accommodation for yourself and then comes job hunting to cut off the expenses both part-time and full-time. However, the transportation facilities are great and affordable for exploring places.
