Specific application process for undergraduate study in Ireland

1. Collect school information and choose the major and direction of application.

Inquire about school and professional information through various channels (network, consulting overseas institutions, writing letters to schools), and select the basic level and general direction of professional application institutions in combination with professional background, interests and personal advantages. Ireland has many institutions to choose from. There are more than 20 Irish schools in the list of schools recognized by the Ministry of Education, and each school has different characteristics and advantages.

2. Prepare application documents.

Letters of recommendation and personal statements are very important to the application. This step requires students to invest a lot of energy, and it is generally recommended that students spend several months preparing. Documents include resume, personal statement and two letters of recommendation. Personal statement is the most important one, because personal statement is the only opportunity for the applicant to show his personal character and academic expertise to the school, so the school usually attaches great importance to the language ability, personality and academic interest shown by the applicant in his personal statement. The whole application in Ireland is in the form of online application, so the documents and materials do not need to be mailed, and can generally be uploaded directly to the system or handed over to the school.

3. Delivery of application materials

Due to the different opening hours of schools in Ireland, applicants need to pay attention to the application dynamics in advance. Generally, the earliest opening time is 65438+ 10 month 1. After submitting the application, it usually takes 3-4 weeks for the school to announce the results one after another. After receiving conditional admission, students need to pay a deposit to occupy the quota. Usually, after paying the deposit, students need to take the IELTS test and submit it. Some Irish universities will offer short-term language classes when IELTS scores are not up to standard, but students need to apply in advance.

Prepare visa materials

The Irish Immigration Bureau will require more lists of materials, but the probability of students refusing visas is very low. Irish visa materials are complicated as a whole, involving parents' work, capital flow, guarantee money, insurance, etc., and students need to be fully prepared. In addition, all non-English materials must be translated. After preparation, students need to make an appointment to submit their visas online, and then bring all the materials to the visa center to submit their visa materials. About two weeks after submission, the Irish Embassy will send the passport with the visa directly to the students themselves. To get a visa, you need to check your personal information and visa information to prevent mistakes. Generally, it is a three-month entry visa, and the visa rate is 85%. After entering the country, you can apply for an IRP (Identity Card) card at GNIB (National Immigration Bureau) office. (All materials should be consistent)

The average score of high schools in Irish national universities is generally above 80, and polytechnics and private colleges generally do not make special requirements.

For example, to apply for a bachelor's degree in business from the University of Dublin, Ireland, in addition to an average score of 80 in high school for three years, you also need to provide college entrance examination results (the college entrance examination results reach more than 76% of the total score of the college entrance examination, and the mathematics single subject requires 75%). If you want to study in Ireland after finishing the second year of high school, some universities also offer preparatory courses, and after finishing the preparatory courses, you can enter the undergraduate course.

Matters needing attention in Irish study visa interview

1, don't be late

Everyone has a strict time limit for an interview. Although there will be more people interviewing, they all have strict rankings. If your number is called and you haven't arrived, you will lose the opportunity of this interview, which will affect the result of the next interview.

2. Don't lie

In the interview process, many people will beautify their experiences in order to enhance their competitiveness, and even fabricate facts and make fiction, so if the interviewer finds out, it is very likely that the visa application will fail.

Step 3 recite the answers

There are many overlapping questions in face-to-face interviews. You can find relevant answer templates online, and many people will use templates to answer questions. Although this is very smooth, lack of sincerity will also affect yourself.

4. Loose attitude

Visa interview is a serious matter and should be treated with caution. When facing the interviewer, you should really think about your mental state, so as to leave a good impression.

5, the instrument is not neat

External image can give you extra points to a great extent. Girls wear light makeup, boys shave and wear formal clothes, which can make you stand out from the crowd.

6. No other experience

The examination of students in Europe and America is not only about academic qualifications, but also requires students to provide some extracurricular experiences, including internship experiences, competitions and other things that highlight personal characteristics.

7. Too much or too little?

In the question-and-answer stage, when you answer questions, the language organization should be logical, and you can think about it in your mind before answering. Don't be silent. Many people talk about Kan Kan, which is not good for you.
